Uncle Les Reynolds

Photographs of Uncle Les (Freddy) Reynolds, ex-actor, footballer, and who also worked for the Aboriginal Medical Service. He starred along side Tom E. Lewis in the film, ‘The Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith’, as well as in ‘Women of the Sun’.

Uncle Les is also part of the Stolen Generation, having been forcibly removed from his family as a child and taken to the notorious government-run Kinchela Aboriginal Boys Training Home (KBH) near Kempsey in northern NSW, where he suffered immense abuse at the hands of those in charge.

Uncle Les is being supported by the Kinchela Boys Home Aboriginal Corporation, who support the social and emotional wellbeing of survivors, their families and descendants.
