Just Words: Australian authors writing for justice
Panel: Bernadette Brennan, Frank Brennan, Peter Manning Chair: Justice MICHAEL KIRBY
This distinguished panel will discuss: Can words make Australia a better place? Can writing help to inform a collective national consciousness? Over the past decade Australians have witnessed a significant shift to more insular and conservative economic, ethical and cultural norms. The problems of valuing and achieving justice seem more acute than ever, yet the solutions to those problems are not obvious nor are those in power taking the lead. In this powerful collection, Australian writers explore the relationship between writing and justice, a relationship utterly dependent on informed, ethical readers.
