CancelledSWF Livestream: Survival, sustenance and stories

Lessons in resilience from First Nations writers and thinkers

Social change is driven by conversation, in sharing ideas, and translating those ideas for audiences who don’t agree or understand what is at stake.

For many First Nations writers and journalists, this has been a huge priority over the last year, in particular, and one that comes with a cost.

In a conversation with legendary truth-tellers, find out what sustains them to keep on going in the face of profound challenges. With Larissa Behrendt, Tony Birch, Narelda Jacobs and Amy Thunig.
