Rivers Flow honours the profound musical and cultural legacy of Archie Roach – a Gunditjmara, Kirrae Whurrong/Djab Wurrung and Bundjalung man – and Ruby Hunter – a Ngarrindjeri, Kokatha and Pitjantjatjara woman.
Curated and introduced by two-time Miles Franklin winner, and Noongar man, Kim Scott, this special volume brings together 23 First Nations writers from across Australia to share stories, personal reflections, and poems that resonate with the legacy of these beloved artists. Among our contributors are powerful voices like Gina Williams (Balladong Noongar and Gitja), Tony Birch (Naarm), Claire G. Coleman (Noongar), Jeanine Leane (Wiradjuri), Anita Heiss (Wiradyuri) and Bruce Pascoe (Yuin, Bunurong and Tasmanian), alongside many other remarkable writers.
With the support and blessing of Amos and Eban Roach, sons of Archie and Ruby, this anthology stands as a tribute to the strength, artistry and enduring spirit of two of Australia’s most cherished artists and cultural leaders.
