Stan Grant will be in conversation with Mark Kenny on Stan's new books On Identity and Australia Day. Tribalism, nationalism and sectarianism are dividing the world into us and them. Communities are a tinderbox of anger and resentment. Stan argues that it is time to leave identity behind and to embrace cosmopolitanism. On Identity is a meditation on hope and community.
