This Is Caitlin.
By Amanda walker
This is Caitlin. She lives in Alice Springs.
This is Me. I live in Sydney.
Caitlin lives a very different life to me.
She visits town on special
occasions.
I travel to the city in my spare =me.
She spends more =me with her family because they are always home together.
I barely see my parents because of school, work and commitments.
They have many Aboriginal people in Alice Springs.
In Sydney we have a larger range of cultures and races.
One day Caitlin was walking home from school when a town Aboriginal person confronted her.
When I’m on the train home from school, no one bothers me.
He was poin=ng towards the dried up river and then towards his beer.
No one tells me to join him or her and have a beer on my way home.
He was grun=ng unknown words at her.
#!*$@?%&~`
People have civilised conversa=ons with me.
She turned to run away from him.
I don’t need to run from anyone.
Caitlin Betteridge, thank you for being my muse.
