Welcome to Feathers My Hair, a teen mom deep dive podcast. I'm your host, Liz Bentley.

Hello, just before I get started, my friend, Matilda, if you are a patron on Liz Explains,

she did an episode with me about Demi Lovato's YouTube documentary.

So that's her. She lives in Australia and she asked me and I forgot to put it on last week,

but I'll put it on this week to plug a charity in Australia. If you guys don't know,

last week in Australia, it was their Australia Day, which

celebrates, in quotation marks, the day that, like, white settlers first came to Australia.

And if you don't know, Australia has a pretty similar colonization history as the United States.

And Aboriginal people in Australia have been treated extremely badly and there's a big protest movement about no longer celebrating that day. And she asked

me if I could plug a charity that helps Aboriginal people in Australia.

I'm sorry, I don't know if it's Aboriginal or indigenous or if it's both.

I feel like the website used both.

So please let me know if I'm not using the correct word, but it's called paytherrent.net.

I donated 26 American dollars is $20 in australia in australia

26 american dollars is 20 dollars in australian money and they help pay people's rent

which you guys know i'm a big believer in like direct action charity where you put money

directly in the hands of people that need it.

And so, yeah, if you can go donate, would really appreciate it.

I'll put the link in the bio.

It's not a bio.

It's a description.

Yeah, I guess it's a description.
