ONLINE SEMINAR: Evening Appetiser: Writing My Way Through the Looking Glass: Looking at my own Racism

Date:

With:

Noè Harsel

Rating:

ALL

Summary:

Noè Harsel is mix of Japanese, Polish and Russian ethnicities. She is also Jewish, American and Australian. This amalgam has created conflict, fear, loathing, pride and joy (and that is just one day!). When trying to write about sensitive and personal subject matters, Noè has had to work out how to recognise her own issues and contend with intersections of identity, race and culture. Join her as she unpacks how this happened for her.
