How food security has been shored up in FNQ this flood season Across northern Queensland, intense rainfall is triggering multiple warnings and flooding roads. Earlier this year, a once-in-a-century flood devastated Ingham and cut the main supply route between Cairns and Townsville. Communities are now taking steps to prevent another food shortage.

Henry Reynolds’ bold, new book takes a top-end view of Australian history First Nations people please be advised this article speaks of racially discriminating moments in history, including the distress and death of First Nations people.

Henry Reynolds’ latest book argues that understanding Australia from the “top down” — starting with the North — reveals a deeper, often ignored history of violence, race relations and cultural complexity. #AustralianHistory #TruthTelling #HenryReynolds #NorthQueensland #FirstNations #BookReview

"A stark white ring-barked forest
All tragic to the moon,
The sapphire-misted mountains,
The hot gold hush of noon.
Green tangle of the brushes,
Where lithe lianas coil,
And orchids deck the tree-tops
And ferns the warm dark soil"
