Look History in the Eye Episode 10

I have been greatly enjoying the series of podcasts 'Look History in the Eye' by the Public Record Office of Victoria, and the latest episode does not disappoint. 


Activism on the goldfields, episode 10 of the podcast series Look history in the eye hears from historian Anna Kyi who explains the importance of 19th Century Victorian Chinese petitions to understand the Australian Chinese immigrant experience on the goldfields. These records are preserved at Public Record Office Victoria and some of them are available to view online via links below. You can find more petitions in our catalogue by searching for Chinese petition. 

This talk was originally given at the Victorian Archives Centre for History Month 2022.

Episode 10: Activism on the goldfields: Victorian Chinese petitions
