Poetic Sovereignty and Storytelling
About
Lay Maloney hosts a powerful conversation with regional poet Jaala Hallett, exploring Blak storytelling from regional perspectives and how these narratives diverge from urban experiences. The event features short readings from each poet, followed by a discussion of cultural responsibilities—what stories can be told and what must be held. Hallett reflects on the influence of Country in shaping poetic voice and form, the differences between writing for Mob and wider audiences, and the cultural protocols involved in weaving old knowledge into contemporary modes of expression.Location
