VERNON AH KEE - TALL MAN

"Tall Man asks questions, questions that compel. What of Lex Wotton? And why don’t we talk about Palm Island? When we say ‘Palm Island’, there are connotations that fix us, that give us pause, and send our emotions racing toward tipping points. Like when we say ‘Cronulla’." Vernon Ah Kee, November 2010
