Writing as Resistance
About
Join us for an unforgettable evening of conversation, storytelling and solidarity as acclaimed author Tony Birch and Palestinian author and educator Micaela Sahhar come together for a powerful discussion facilitated by literary critic and advocate Bec Kavanagh.Held at the Chestnut Tree Bookshop, this event will explore the shared threads of resistance within Indigenous Australian and Palestinian communities — through history, lived experience, and the written word. Together, these voices will reflect on how literature can bear witness, build bridges, and become a tool for justice.
