Davey Thompson shares his story of how an awkward, flamboyant gay Aboriginal met his ride-or-die-best-friend.
Davey is an Inningai, Bidjara, Wakka Wakka and Gubbi Gubbi man from a small town named Barcaldine in Queensland. As a child, he wished to grow up and become Princess Leia, who taught him to strangle his oppressors with the very chains they put you in. He moved to Brisbane via Bundaberg to study at the Aboriginal Centre for the Performing Arts, and has since worked behind the scenes for the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, Circus Oz and Guesswork Television. Davey is also a writer, activist, host of Urban Dreaming on JOY 94.9 and MC of the Australian chapter of Cocoa Butter Club.
