Be part of Live & Local. Come to Geelong Library & Heritage Centre to watch these author events, live-streamed by Sydney Writers' Festival and screened only at the Library.
What does it mean to live your politics? Is a life of protest and dissent good for the soul or is it soul destroying? Former deputy leader of the Australian Greens Scott Ludlam was a senator from 2008 to 2017. Scott speaks to Barrie about his new book Full Circle, which explores a new approach to political and environmental change.
Barrie and Scott are then joined by a panel of experts to discuss the triumphs and disappointments of activism and advocacy, and the challenges and advantages of expressing dissent from an institutional base.
Further program information available on the Sydney Writers' Festival website.
