La Petite Mort: Nadine Chemali Is Going To Die

Marieke Hardy Is Going To Die

LA PETITE MORT: NADINE CHEMALI IS GOING TO DIE
Every second week on MHIGTD we explore a conversation about mortality and survival with human beings who have skin in the game. And today we're asking the question: How do you show up as an activist in a time of global crisis when you’re struggling with your own personal grief?
Nadine Chemali is a writer and social worker who was forced to face this impossible scenario when her beloved father fell ill two months ago.
Nadine came to Australia as a child, fleeing war torn Beirut. She is dedicated to community, facilitating discussions on displacement, representation, sexuality and community care, discourse she feels was missing from her own upbringing in Australia. Nadine has worked extensively in the settlement and justice sectors, she was the host of SBS Audio podcast, Erotic Stories and has spoken at events like Melbourne Writers Festival. Nadine is also Shop Dad of Thrillhouse Tattoo in Meanjin.
