INTRODUCING — Fierce Girls

This is an episodic podcast, so you can listen to it in any order, but episode one is a great place to start.

Listen to episode one here

Nyadol Nyuon's family is from South Sudan, but she was born in a refugee camp.

Every night she prayed that her family could move to Australia. And, when she was 18, her prayers were answered.

In Australia, Nyadol wanted to be a lawyer, but her teachers didn't think she had the ability. Nyadol had some surprises in store for those doubters.

She did become a lawyer and, when the media unfairly targeted African youths in their reports, she found her voice and fought to give refugees a voice too.

Narrated by comedian, Natalie Tran.

Extra narration by Peggy Webber.
