The Commons

In this podcast (originally broadcast on 4ZZZ on 28.2.19) we are talking about 'the commons' - what and where are 'commons', and how can 'the commons' and projects of re-commoning help us craft more ecological sound and socially just modes of living together?

To do this we'll be playing/talking through materials from an event hosted last year at the Griffith University Ecocentre, where Tim Hollo presented his Griffith Review essay "The commons and the Commonwealth". We'll read through his essay (the audio recording was corrupted), and listen to some responses to Tim's essay, including one from the incredible Dr Mary Graham.

BONUS CONTENT I'll be ranting about how critiques of 'the commons' have a sordid history rooted in white supremacy. Enjoy!
