“Let’s have no more gratuitous violence forward; this isn’t truth telling. I’m not suggesting writers gloss over the truth; I’m asking for writers to be conscious of what they’re writing. To do no more harm.” @1KarenWyld #ContextFest21

“How can any of us writing on this continent be ‘post colonial’ writers? Let’s commit to writing honestly about settler colonial, let’s do this without resorting to ‘trauma porn’.” #ContextFest21

“Read, learn how to evaluate the publications you read, then find and follow the journalists [you value]. Your support means editors keep hiring them — they can only continue if you’re there reading their stuff.” @RoyceRk2 on how we can support journalism #ContextFest21

“Where I find hope is that you have a crop of people coming through who are committed and care about journalism, and there are other models. There are models of industrial journalism that aren’t about shareholders and profit.” @RoyceRk2 #ContextFest21
