Raimond Gaita on a Common Humanity (Melbourne Writers Festival 2015)
What is a ‘common humanity’? One of Australia’s most prominent moral philosophers, Raimond Gaita, explores this fragile idea, in a world where we treat asylum seekers as criminals, lock up children and refuse to change the way we live now, despite the dire consequences for the next generations.
This Talking Points session at the Melbourne Writers Festival 2015 is hosted by Maria Tumarkin.
Melbourne, August 2015
