Coconut Children: Hijabs in the members stand, the immigrant parent gap and being the youngest sibling with Rana Hussein

<p>This weeks episode of Book(ish) I sit down with inclusivity and diversity consultant, occasional writer for the Guardian and broadcaster Rana Hussein to talk Coconut Children by Vivian Pham. We talk about trying to bring more representation to the AFL, what it's like when both society and your family can't comprehend you being boy crazy and the joys of being the youngest sibling.
