In this one-off live special of Dicey Topics BENJAMIN LAW gets CLEMENTINE FORD, STEPHANIE WOOD and JESS HILL to bare all about SEX, DEATH and RELIGION
In Good Weekend magazine every Saturday, Benjamin Law interviews prominent people – artists, designers, businesspeople, actors, scientists, athletes, politicians – about private topics: (1) sex; (2) death; (3) money; (4) religion; (5) politics; and (6) our bodies – by getting them to roll a dice. His hunch is these taboos represent some of the most important conversations we can have and with this panel it certainly proves to be true!

Shame is one of the most pervasive and tough human emotions. How does shame reshape us? And how can we extricate ourselves from its abyss? Writers’ best works, though, often dwell in the caves of shame, and for them shame can be a reliable barometer to detect those urgent stories they need to tell.

This panel ask the question: what do we want from education? Do we want our children to master basic skills, or do we want our children to be critical thinkers? Do we want our children to be curious and creative? Do we want our young people to be kind? What is the purpose of K-12 education in Australia? Why don't we trust teachers?

TONY BIRCH talks to LUKE CARMAN about his Miles Franklin shortlisted book "THE WHITE GIRL"
In The White Girl, Miles-Franklin-shortlisted author Tony Birch shines a spotlight on the 1960s and the devastating government policy of taking Indigenous children from their families.
Odette Brown has lived her whole life on the fringes of a small country town. After her daughter disappeared and left her with her granddaughter Sissy to raise on her own, Odette has managed
to stay under the radar of the welfare authorities who are removing fair-skinned Aboriginal children from their families. When a new policeman arrives in town, determined to enforce the law, Odette must risk everything to save Sissy and protect everything she loves.

You don’t have to look far today to find ethical failures causing widespread social disruption: fake news, the growing power of tech companies, dishonest political campaigning, child sex abuse scandals and cover ups within religious institutions and the rise of alt-right agitators giving new license to racism, misogyny and hatred. What are the building blocks for social growth in a disrupted age? Do we need an ethical infrastructure to help us navigate through these difficult times? And how should individual agitators, critics and commentators engage with institutions and the public to build social cohesion and a better society?

Naturalist, poet and seasoned bushwalker worked for over a decade to uncover the Bundian Way, a 380-kilometre ancient pathway from Mount Kosciuszko to the New South Wales far south coast, used by both the Aboriginal people of the area and the earliest British arrivals. John collaborated with the Eden Aboriginal Land Council to survey and researching the history of the ancient pathway. Thanks to their efforts, today the Bundian Way is heritage listed.

The first session from the first ever Storyfest in Milton is here and it is a doozy! All about what does go on inside the mind of a crime writer. Are they are constantly murdering people in their sleep. Or maybe they trawl the internet for hours searching for despicable inspirations. Who better to ask than three of Australia's bestselling crime writers as they reveal what draws them to write crime, the dark and the funny, with Candice Fox, Michael Robotham and Christian White. Hosted by Meredith Jaffè. Hilarious, shocking and interesting as hell this panel will have you crying with laughter and gasping for breath. A brilliant start to an outstanding festival.

It's a universally acknowledged truth that women read more fiction than men...but why? For women who experience the majority of the emotional and mental load of managing families, homes and relationships, the novel seems poised as an ideal form to explore this terrain - the power wielded within it, its pitfalls, price, and pleasures. The novel can be a tool for resistance, a solace, and an art. So what does the imbalance in what gets published actually mean? How does it affect what is considered 'worthwhile reading'? And what are the poor blokes missing out on? #FWF18 #w4wpodcast #writes4festivals #writing #festivals #feminism #reading #journalism #activism #fiction #readers #booksSHOWNOTES:Writes4Festivals and Writes4WomenWeb - www.writes4women.comFacebook - @writes4womenTwitter / Instagram - @w4wpodcastFeminist Writers FestivalWeb - www.feministwritersfestival.comFacebook / Twitter - @feministwritersfest

Dr Anne Summers AO has been defying expectations her entire life. Her extraordinary career as a journalist, author, policy maker, activist, bureaucrat, board member, editor and publisher, has seen her travel the world, leading feminist debate, advising prime ministers, presiding over Greenpeace International and producing and writing influential journalism and books.

Writes4Festivals Presents 2018 Feminist Writers Festival - Sydney "Domestic Violence and the Law" (CW: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND RAPE)
With Professor Heather Douglas, Professor Nan Seuffert, Dr Jane Wangmann and chair Dr Cristy Clark.
Australia has a serious problem with domestic violence. One in three women will experience violence in their lifetime, one in five will experience sexual violence, and every single week, one woman is murdered by a partner or ex-partner. Current legal and policy responses to domestic violence are inadequate, often inappropriate, and can sometimes put women and their children at risk. Our panel of domestic violence experts will discuss the legal and policy changes that are needed to change our shocking domestic violence statistics and the systems that uphold them.
If you or anyone you know is dealing with domestic violence please call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 for help. A life may depend on it. #1800respect
