David Marr in conversation

Cinema Nova, Lygon St, Carlton VIC 3053

Join Professor Marcia Langton and David Marr for a gripping reckoning with the bloody history of Australia's frontier wars.

Marr was shocked to discover his forebears served with the Native Police, the most brutal force in Australian history. Killing for Country is the result – a personal history of the Frontier Wars. Marr brings his experience as an investigative journalist, an award-winning biographer and political analyst to the story of a colonial family that seized hundreds of thousands of acres of land and led Aboriginal troopers into bloody massacres in the most violent years of the Native Police. 

Killing for Country is a unique history of the making of Australia.

Tickets are $10 per person, redeemable off Killing for Country on the night.
