Public forum with Les Murray
The UTS Anti-Racism Collective is very proud to co-host, with Refugee Action Coalition NSW, this timely forum featuring Les Murray, SBS soccer commentator who (with Dateline) recently returned to Hungary to meet the people who helped him and his family flee in 1956.

Other speakers include:
Mike Grewcock, author of Border Crimes & UNSW law lecturer;
Edwina Lloyd, lawyer for Indonesian boat crew jailed on 'people smuggling' charges; and
Hadi Hosseini (Afghan Hazara detained on Christmas Island and in Darwin) on his experience of being 'smuggled'.
