About Talk: Peace Crimes — Kieran Finnane
For three decades, journalist and author Kieran Finnane has written with depth and insight about life in Central Australia. Her latest book, Peace Crimes, situates Alice Springs — as host to the Pine Gap military base — in a global context, materially and morally, and weaves core events into a multi-faceted reflection on our responsibilities to one another and to country.
Join us at White Gums, on the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks – and just weeks since foreign forces announced their withdrawal from Afghanistan. Kieran will be in conversation with Mparntwe/Alice Springs-based writer, social researcher, and media/arts producer, Lisa Stefanoff, with violin performance by Jon Rose.
Kieran & Lisa's talk will be followed by a short walk on the White Gums property. If you would like to join us, please wear practical shoes and bring some water.
