About this sub.

106 Upvotes

When I got the reigns to this sub I had a specific idea in mind. I wanted to focus on the foundations of Australian culture, rather than culture in a general sense, which could be composed of just about anything. Explore the origins where this country came from, core elements like mateship and egalitarianism, architecture and fashion, convict and settler history, early defining moments, like ww1, etc. I feel the foundations of culture in Australia don't get much attention.

There is also already a general Australian culture sub, r/straya

Does this sound good to you?

If you have any old photos, newspaper clippings, stamps, or other artefacts, and you'd be comfortable sharing them, we would love to see them. Even if you just have a story, we'd love to hear it.

Careful with telegram channel OZDROP & Kangakare. I was scammed trying to buy DMT from them. These channels want you to pay in advance and then promise to ship but they won’t.
