Nine Successful Black Chics Talk with Leah Purcell.

Nine young Aboriginal women, successful in a variety of professions, tell their stories to Leah Purcell. Some have achieved success in the white fella's world; others are working to improve life within Aboriginal communities or maintain indigenous traditions increasingly under siege. From urban chic to rural chic, all of the women share a passionate, sometimes humorous, approach to the highs and lows of life, and a strong determination to succeed.

The book is a journey of discovery for both interviewer and subject, as Leah and the other women explore their backgrounds, aspirations, passions, spirituality and their own place in Australia. The women talk about their lives with honesty, humour, sadness and love. Their stories are at once uplifting and deeply moving, some a timely reminder that the wrongs of the past cast a wide shadow.

'Black Chics Talking' routs the old stereotypes and showcases the talented young black women who are putting their stamp on the Australian cultural landscape.

Features Leah Purcell, Kathryn Hay, Cilla Malone, Frances Rings, Deborah Mailman, Sharon Finnan, Rachel Perkins, Tammy Williams, Rosanna Angus, and Liza Fraser-Gooda.
