What connects Australia to the Caribbean? A new History Lab narrative series reveals the surprising lives of Caribbean sportsmen and performers who shaped Australia. Meet forgotten Australian boxing star Peter Jackson, who moonlit as an actor and carefully shaped his public image long before Instagram, and Nellie Small, a queer, Caribbean-Australian star who sang in suits, stood up to racism, and made the country laugh.
