Poetics of Resistance

Poetry has a long history of bucking the status quo, grammatically or otherwise.

For Goorie and Koori poet and Stella Prize winner Evelyn Araluen (The Rot), Victorian Premier’s Literary Award for Poetry winner Maxine Beneba Clarke (beautiful changelings) and poet and playwright Nikita Gill (Hekate: The Witch), poetry is a place for deep connection, profound reckoning and feminist resistance.

Hear Evelyn, Maxine and Nikita perform readings of their work and discuss the forces of feminist resistance behind their poetry. With host Sara M. Saleh.
