Best of Black Magic Woman Podcast - Mystery Guest Edition 1

As we approach Christmas, we’re taking time to reflect on the incredible stories shared on the Black Magic Woman Podcast this year. This week, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with my childhood sis, Samala Thakialee Cronin, the powerhouse behind MumRed the Label.

Samala is more than a designer; she’s a storyteller, weaving culture, identity, and resilience into every piece she creates. From using kangaroo sinew and weaving techniques passed down through generations to showcasing her work on international runways, she’s breaking barriers and ensuring our people are not just seen but celebrated.

We talked about her recent achievements, like creating stunning bespoke pieces for Thelma Plum and representing our culture at major events like New York Fashion Week. Samala also shared her powerful reflections on kinship, black matriarchy, and the strength of our mob.

💬 “How can they hear us if they can’t see us?”

This yarn is close to my heart, and I know you’ll feel the same. Samala’s passion and determination are inspiring, and I couldn’t be prouder of the deadly work she’s doing.

Check out the links below for more info about MumRed the Label and how you can support my sista.

In this episode I yarn with Coby Edgar, a proud queer First Nations curator and cultural practitioner. Coby shares her journey from Darwin to Sydney, the intersection of art and activism, and the significance of storytelling in keeping history and culture alive. We explore her approach to curating community-driven exhibitions, the joy of working with mob, and her vision for fostering connection through art.

This community-focused show emphasizes the beauty of diversity while celebrating commonalities, inspired by her conversations with mob and her uncle's insights on cultural overlaps.

The exhibition highlights the connections between people, place, and history, offering a joyful and thought-provoking perspective on identity and belonging. Don’t miss this incredible showcase of creativity and cultural dialogue!
