SWF Live & Local: I Was Wrong - Taree

Join us for Australia's best-loved forums for literature, ideas and storytelling, the Sydney Writers Festival, live-streaming this May 22 at MidCoast Libraries.

Prepare to be engaged by conversations, debates and discussions, as the Festival brings the world’s finest authors to MidCoast Libraries in real time.

I Was Wrong

They are seemingly the three hardest words to say in public life: “I was wrong”. The process of changing minds – individually, collectively and culturally – is made that much harder by a political landscape in which admitting uncertainty, confessing error or revealing a change of heart is actively discouraged.Hear from some of Australia’s most respected holders of deep-seated beliefs – including David Marr, Jane Caro, Paul McDermott and Marcia Langton – as they each present a short talk on a topic that deepened their learning, evolved their thinking or flat out changed their mind. Hosted by Maddison Connaughton.

Spots limited. Bookings essential.

This is a live-streamed event.
