25.01.2022 Years ago, when I was working for my beloved Footscray Mail I went through a stage of writing about old, dyed in the red wool communists. Among them men who fought for workers rights and human rights. Then there was Paddy Garritty who did the same in, but he also believed in art and culture for the working class and was integral to the Footscray Community Arts Centre. The story ran on the front page helped by a beautiful photo by photographer Adam Elwood. Paddy was charming and witty and cheeky. In a way, he helped me learn my craft of interviewing and letting the narrator tell their story. I thought he had a story then and he was only 60 at the time. Vale Paddy at 83. https://www.theage.com.au//comrade-paddy-always-found-a-wa

I talk about it in my latest blog post on women's voices and the need for roaring and for a bit of shoosh. https://www.storiestokeep.com.au/what-helen-reddy-taught.../

03.01.2022 Just love those photographs telling the story.

02.01.2022 Lovely tribute here to a nonna who migrated to Australia. She is remembered for who she was but only written about in The Age for succumbing to the dreaded virus. Imagine how rich this story would have been in her own words with all the details she could remember. Vale Emereziana Lucia Ballan. https://www.theage.com.au//you-re-wonderful-family-remembe
