Samia Khatun is a writer, filmmaker and cultural historian. She was born in Dhaka, educated in Sydney and has held research fellowships in Berlin, Dunedin, New York and Melbourne. She is soon to develop a history programme at the University of Liberal Arts, Bangladesh.
'Khatun’s achievement in Australianama… is not simply the
unearthing of new histories of South Asian and Muslim diasporas in
Australia, but the posing of a new set of questions about the
implications of seeing, reading, hearing and thinking otherwise,
and about how these practices might rework our understanding of a
national past.'
