101 - Tim Lo Surdo
Manage episode 177827968 series 62728
This guy is a gun. At just 22 years old, Tim Lo Surdo has advised federal senators and worked at everywhere from the Oaktree Foundation to the Australian Youth Climate Change Coalition to UN Youth to the United Voice union.
He's now set up an advocacy group called Democracy in Colour: an advocacy group dedicated to combating racism in Australian politics. It's a fascinating project, and here Tim outlines his personal experiences of racism, the realities of racism and the politics of fear in Australia today, the Left's failures to combat such racism and how white allies can help (in the right way).
Problematic is coming to Sydney for 4 shows only at the Sydney Comedy Festival
And it's now on sale for Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017
