In this episode of The TikTok Influencers You Really Should Know About, we get to meet Aunty Munya Andrews and Carla Rogers, the dynamic duo behind the popular TikTok page, 'Ask Aunty and Ask an Ally'
Aunty Munya, an Aboriginal elder, author and barrister, and Carla, a Churchill fellowship recipient and dedicated ally, share their journey of promoting Indigenous culture and fostering understanding between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
Through their Evolve Communities initiative, they address common questions about Aboriginal culture, spirituality, and history, while emphasizing the importance of acknowledgment, respect, and a deep connection to land and spirit within Indigenous communities. They also highlight the vital role allies play in fostering healing and learning.
Join us for an insightful discussion on cultural protocols, the effects of colonization, and the power of social media in bridging cultural divides.
