This week, we catch up with renowned barrister, spokesperson, and human rights advocate Greg Barns SC, as he shares how music has been a driving force in his life and how he sees music playing a huge role in public debate, reform and dialogue. In this discussion, we touched on some of the controversial debates taking place at the time, focusing on the voice of cultural institutions and artists in the discussions of the war in the Middle East - the role and rights of artists to articulate public positions on divisive issues.
Greg talks about another area of passionate interest, prisoners’ rights - and how cultural experiences and music in jails can be powerful forces.
As Julian Assange's longtime legal advisor, Greg shares how the cultural community can contribute to the quest for his release.
