Her grandmother's father left the Cherokee reservation when he was younger and her grandfather's mother (who is Blackfoot) used to have to walk five paces behind her husband in public due to her darker skin.

Her mother's last name "Yarran" is a traditional name from Balladong country in Western Australia.
    • Quotes
      To be an ally you must be willing to listen, truly listen. As an ally I will challenge everything you think you know about Indigenous people. Whether consciously aware of a bias or not, you must be willing to be brutally honest about your individual perception and relationship towards Indigenous people
