Contents:
In: Quarterly essaySummary: To read every article the Australian has published on Safe Schools is to induce nausea. This isn?t even a comment on the content, just the sheer volume ... And yet, across this entire period, the Australian ? self-appointed guardian of the safety of children ? spoke to not a single school-aged LGBTIQ youth. Not even one. Later, queer teenagers who followed the Safe Schools saga told me the dynamic felt familiar. At school, it?s known as bullying. In journalism, it?s called a beat-up.--Back cover.
Includes correspondence : J.E.N. Veron, Matt Canavan, Richard Denniss, John Quiggin, Robyn Eckersley, Geoff Russell, Graham Readfearn, David Ritter, Anna Krien.
