Cancel Culture and Branding Balls-Ups (2022x6)

Uitzenddatum: Mrt 17, 2022

Self-proclaimed ‘bad feminist’ and outspoken social commentator Roxane Gay has returned to Australia to speak at key events about feminism, race and giving a platform to emerging voices. With Australia’s borders finally open again, we’ll discuss the concept of “Fortress Australia”. Has it left a lasting impact on our international reputation? What are the challenges ahead for tourism, employment, and key business relationships? Do we need disrupters to bring fresh ideas to the fore after such a tumultuous period? Another key election focus will be the rising cost of living. Some Coalition MPs and state Premiers are calling on the Federal Government to cut the fuel excise, which the Prime Minister is not ruling out. How would that impact our long term economic and national interests? Panellists: Roxane Gay, Writer; Anne Aly, Labor MP for Cowan; Thomas Mayor, Author and advocate; Pru Goward, Former NSW Liberal Minister; a live performance from Chris Cheney.
