This conversation is part of the HCNSW podcast series "First Nations Conversations" that looks at First Nations histories of resilience, survival, and resistance.
This episode of "First Nations Conversations" is the recording of the 2025 History Week panel “Living Histories: First Nations Creatives and Researchers in Conversation” which was presented at the Vere Gordon Childe Centre at the University of Sydney, in partnership with the History Council of NSW and the Powerful Stories Network. The panel, chaired by Jadzia Stronell, was in conversation with Lily-Thomas McKnight, Samantha Snedden, and Amy Davidson.
In this session, they reflect on how cultural, family, and community histories are woven into their work as creatives and researchers. Together, they ask: How can history live beyond the archive? And what does it mean to research and create in ways that honour intergenerational memory?
