Sydney Ideas: Tim Soutphommasane On Hate and Race Politics

How is hate shaping society? And what must we do about it?

In his new book, On Hate, Tim Soutphommasane analyses the troubling rise of nationalist populism and the return of race politics. On Hate is an urgent call for citizens to defend democracy against extremism.

This event is co-presented with Sydney Policy Lab and School of Social and Political Sciences.
