Thoroughly enjoyed this column by @SamdeBrito on Johnathan Thurston's daughter's doll smh.com.au/comment/johnathan…
Johnathan Thurston's daughter's dark-skinned doll shouldn't be a big deal

Johnathan Thurston's daughter's dark-skinned doll shouldn't be a big deal

Viewers were "moved" when they saw Frankie Thurston cuddling her black doll, but it shouldn't have been remarkable .

Excellent piece by @Samdebrito: Fiction, the fact that makes us human smh.com.au/comment/fiction-t… via @smh
Fiction, the fact that makes us human

Fiction, the fact that makes us human

Storytelling is so fundamental in human affairs we often see straight through its significance, much like a fish does the water in which it swims.
