Do we need terrible queer representation to get to good queer representation? Debate among @NGFeathers, @DrJRLatham, and @ErinOnFridays 🌈 @LitInterface #LitInterface
Aunty Jeanine: I can understand why we need some form of categorisation but I feel that genre is problematic to me, my stories don't fit within those structures. Sometimes I have to subvert those structures out of respect or responsibility.
Shannon is charting a link between the decline of the Western canon in intellectual fashion with the increasing access that working class people can have to that work through publishing distribution and popular culture.
Totally agree, probs wouldn't be a fab lesbian today if not for Willow of #Buffy 🌈 @LitInterface #LitInterface #queerliterarystudies

Aunty Jeanine: Aboriginal people are the most spoken about but the least listened to.
Uncle Bruce: If you can write you have a responsibility, the world is in peril. Everything you write has to be with that consciousness. To fail to acknowledge that responsibility is cowardice. We have to uses voices responsibly to encourage the world.
Uncle Bruce: @BangarraDance have done so much for our community by bringing our stories forward through dance. I love the company, I love their ethics, I love their skill, I was extremely proud to have them adapt Dark Emu.
Michelle: The difficulty of getting fiction published is often about who you are. I'm interested and challenged by how difficult it is for the mixed ancestry voice to be heard.
Shannon: I wanted to mark out something of myself. To challenge some of the assumptions people had about me because of the nature of my intellectual work.
👀 May I break my "no conferencing until monograph is submitted" edict??? @GirlhoodWarwick @YALMC_ResNet @YAIdentities
Please RT: Call for papers exploring the lives of girls and young women from our friends @GirlhoodGang
Uncle Bruce: It's not about hugging trees, it's about loving trees, and knowing why you love them.
Bruce Pascoe: “HOW WE LOVE OUR COUNTRY IS GOING TO SAVE OUR BACON... I don’t think I write a sentence that doesn’t remember that”. #LitInterface #Naidoc2018
The question of genre has been raised in both the Writing Sex & Gender and Writing & Political Change panels, echoing the important work being done on Genre Worlds by @lmfletcher72, David Carter, Kim Wilkins, and @Beth_driscoll aka @PopFicDoctors 💕 @LitInterface #LitInterface
Aunty Jeanine: Writing can be very dangerous in terms of what it can represent and do to people.
Aunty Jeanine reading her shattering poem "Historians" - definite chuckles through the room but I'm waiting for the penny to drop from the audience.
Uncle Bruce: Australia has allowed important knowledge to disappear from the history books. If we're going to look after our children we need to tell them the truth. How we know our country is going to save our bacon (unless you're a vegetarian).
Attn postgrads! We're having a spontaneous dinner after the panel at Chez Fredrick in Braddon :D 🌈 @LitInterface #LitInterface
Shannon Burns: I think literature can help people develop a moral consciousness but it's up to the reader to figure out what to do with that.
Shannon Burns: I wouldn't necessarily frame my work as a political disposition, more as a querying disposition. I feel weirdly compelled to fire questions into dangerous territories.
