Mel Brown in conversation with Dianne Collins

Join Mel a Ngunnawal woman and Australian author as she launches her new book through story and song, and conversation.
This event will include a Q&A, book sale and signing opportunity.
Growing up white, Mel always felt that there was another shade to her soul.
Shades of Me follows Mel's journey as she redefines who she is and how she sees her place in the world.
As Aboriginal families are being torn apart, this is a story of one woman's fight to keep them together – one family at a time. In helping others, she finds her true path in life
