"Just get on with it" seems to be the mentality of a lot of refugee families, so we often don't get to hear their stories. In this episode, one daughter of refugee parents is determined (but a little scared) to share her parents' journey to Australia, and how they built a life here.

S04E05 - Go Back to Where You Came From: Safety and Belonging on our Streets
Derogatory or alienating racial comments and actions are something most people of colour have experienced in Australia. From "ni hao baby" to being glared at for slurping your pearl milk tea, it's often quite paralysing, and it's hard to know what to do in those situations. So why are these forms of harassment harmful? What does it say about Australian identity? And what can we do about it?
