Poetry takes many forms. It is held in story, heard in the songs of Whales and felt in the stomping of feet dancing up Country. Join Red Room’s Nicole Smede and Luke Patterson as part of Contains Strong Language for a discussion on the importance of expressing cultural knowing and story through language and 'poetry' and what we can learn by honouring our ancient songlines. With live readings from Red Room Poetry’s new cultural immersion project Baraya Barray - Whale Song and special guests Dr Rhonda Radley and Dr Jodi Edwards.
This event will be live streamed.
Presented by Red Room Poetry in partnership with BBC, ABC and the State Library of NSW
