The Annual History Lecture: Voices in the Street

Tue, 17 Aug 2010 09:48:53 +1000

John Laws, arguably Australia’s most successful talkback radio host, labelled his program and genre ‘dial-in democracy’. If biography and ‘history from below’ are about ‘faces in the street’, then the Australian media is, and has been, at least in part, about voices from the street.

In this lecture, Associate Professor Bridget Griffen-Foley considers how voices of ‘the people’ have been heard in Australian print media, led by the Bulletin, since the nineteenth century, and on Australian radio since the 1920s.

When: Friday 3 September, 6:00pm

Where: Government House, Macquarie Street, Sydney

Cost: $50.00 general, $45.00 HCNSW, HHT members and concession. Bookings essentialBookings: Call 02 9252 8715 or email admin@historycouncilnsw.org.au
