Maxine Beneba Clarke talks about her new book The Hate Race
Australian author and poet Maxine Beneba Clarke speaks about her memoir The Hate Race.
'I felt that it was important to write The Hate Race. I felt there was a gap in Australian history in terms of migration stories, particularly coming out of the 70s, 80s and 90s, post White Australia Policy. So I wanted to be able to tell the story of what that time was like growing up as a young child of colour in the Australian suburbs.'
