At MWF19 we’ll be talking a great deal about the books, ideas, words and writing that stir our bellies up and make us feel passionate about the world. We’ll find ways to connect with each other, share experiences and open our imaginations together. We’re so thrilled to share our brand-new Schools’ Program with you, inviting you to truly become immersed in the discussions, performance, poetry, workshops, drawing and explorations of creativity on offer, and get up close and personal with the authors and artists who inspire you. This year we are delighted to be hosting schools’ sessions at State Library Victoria, the Wheeler Centre and Treasury Theatre as well as the Immigration Museum, creating a whole new literary precinct for inquisitive minds to thrive. We believe all readers are writers are artists are students are humans. We hope the Festival is a way for you to connect to the words you inhale, the text you scribble, and the unique way you see the world.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} the Family Law by Benjamin Law 'It's Like a Turducken of Mums': Benjamin Law on Fact, Fiction and the Family Law
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Family Law by Benjamin Law 'It's like a turducken of mums': Benjamin Law on fact, fiction and The Family Law. There’s a saying: when a writer is born, a family dies. “I’m that guy,” says Benjamin Law. Of course, that’s not strictly the case. Law may have turned his experiences of growing up in a large Asian Australian family on Queensland’s extremely Anglo Sunshine Coast into a memoir – and that memoir may have spawned a television comedy series starring characters named after and modelled on his actual family, featuring things that actually happened to them, both painful and amusing – but the backlash has been minimal, at least in real life. When we meet on set for season two – in a stinking hot warehouse in Brisbane – he has both families to contend with. The real Law family are trickling in for their opening episode cameo – something they did in the first season, too. It’s also the birthday of one of the cast members – Trystan Go, who plays teenage Ben – and the warehouse is buzzing with activity. In fact, there are so many layers of Laws in the building that I am starting to feel dizzy. The actors playing the on-screen family call each other by their screen names between takes, with the on-screen children calling their on-screen parents “mum” and “dad” in everyday life. When I ask now 15-year-old Go what his real mother thinks about this, he says she’d probably prefer not to comment.

  • Growing the Family Tree: Connecting Generations in Multicultural Families Forum
    June 2012 GROWING THE FAMILY TREE: CONNECTING GENERATIONS IN MULTICULTURAL FAMILIES FORUM Summary of Key Issues and Recommendations Background On Thursday 3rd May 2012, the City of Sydney, Relationships Australia NSW and the Ethnic Communities’ Council of NSW presented a discussion forum on intergenerational conflict in multicultural families. The forum was held at NSW Parliament House and was hosted by the Hon. Victor Dominello MP and facilitated by SBS Journalist Peta-Jane Madam. The event featured a panel of speakers from diverse backgrounds including Co-ordinator of Relationships Australia NSW Humanitarian Entrants Program Rahat Chowdhury; former refugee from Iraq Sam Almaliki; Above: (Right to Left) Peta-Jane Madam, Founding Advisor of African Women Australia Inc. Juliana Rahat Chowdhury, Sam Almaliki, Juliana Nkrumah; Executive Ofcer of Auburn Diversity Services Tia Nkrumah, Tia Loko, Bea Leoncini & Loko; Argentinean born diversity and leadership trainer, Benjamin Law. migration professional and social activist Bea Leoncini; and writer Benjamin Law (See Appendix A for further details). Conflict between generations is a significant issue in multicultural families. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, in 2006, 26% of people born in Australia had at least one overseas-born parent (ABS 2008). Of these, 44% had both parents born overseas (ABS 2008). Although intergenerational conflict is not unique to multicultural families, research shows that the migration or refugee experience can have a profound impact on family dynamics. Raising a family in a new environment and growing up in a society with diferent values, cultural norms and expectations to one’s parents can be major stressors and cause tension within the family home (Multicultural Youth Afairs Network NSW 2011b).

In August we paid tribute to outgoing Race Discrimination Commissioner Dr Tim Soutphommasane. Dr Soutphommasane has been an outstanding advocate of Multicultural Australia and a fierce defender of human rights for all Australians in his role, which seeks to maintain and enhance the harmony and success of Australia’s society. In congratulating Dr Soutphommasane, FECCA also endorsed his warnings about the emergence of ‘race politics’ and reminded the leaders of public debate in Australia to ensure that issues around immigration and population as well as other matters relating to I was very pleased that the Senate rejected the multiculturalism n Australia are discussed in a climate deeply offensive and divisive statements made by of respect. the new Senator.
