Who Gets to be Smart: Bri Lee In-Conversation with Jane Caro AM

Описание: Presented by The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre and Matilda Bookshop

Bri Lee will be in-conversation with social commentator Jane Caro AM discussing her latest book, Who Gets To Be Smart - a forensic and hard-hitting exploration of knowledge, power and privilege.

Interrogating the adage, 'knowledge is power', and calling institutional prejudice to account, Bri Lee once again dives into her own privilege and presumptions to bring us the stark and confronting results.

Far from offering any 'equality of opportunity', Australia's education system exacerbates social stratification.

The questions Bri asks of politics and society have their answers laid bare in the responses to the Ramsay Centre for Western Civilisation, COVID-19, and the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020.
