Good Starts Arts Project
The Good Starts Arts project has made available on its website two films, See Through Me: Discrimination through the eyes of ten young Somali-Australians and Crazy: The everyday experiences of Sudanese-Australian young women.  The films explore the settlement experiences of young people from refugee backgrounds in different ways and are at once challenging, fascinating and engaging.  The films can be viewed at http://www.latrobe.edu.au/rhrc/goodstarts_arts.html
