    Why are indigenous communities facing forced closure under the guise of sustainability, when communities such as the City of Casey are experiencing alarmingly high rates of family violence, and as a result, children in out of home care?
    9+

    This is important for the elimination of racism, violent behaviours, rates of imprisonment, and increased government transparency and ownership.

    Is it more important to focus on the present (enjoying the moment), future (achieving goals) or past (learning from mistakes)?

    What are the practical, everyday benefits we might experience living in a ‘more agile’ Australia?
    1+

    Political rhetoric seldom translates easily into discernible difference at the individual level. When Malcolm Turnbull proposes an increasingly ‘agile’ Australia, what real difference will this occasion in our 21st-century, day-to-day lives?

    Why are literature and arts festivals always so heavy?
    9+

    I know this makes me a terrible person, but our art and literature festivals seem to increasingly skew towards the big (depressing, seemingly insoluble, overwhelming) issues. It must reflect a need, but I feel there also needs to be more space for play, joy, spectacle, experimentation, awe, hope.

    Who really gets to narrate history?

    In a university class at the moment I am learning about indigenous land injustice. I came up with this question in a tutorial. History is not objective, and who really shapes it?

    Why are white people expats and people of colour immigrants?
    22+

    I have always been called an expat, not an immigrant. But shouldn’t that be the same thing?

    Why do we increasingly accept and expect less of our political leaders?
    10+

    The public seems to be content with castigating honest and reasonable mistakes while overlooking genuine issues in favour of “weapons of mass distraction”.

    Why is marijuana illegal in Australia? How is marijuana more dangerous than alcohol?
    2+

    I have used marijuana for over 45 years. I use it responsibly and I have never had a bad experience with it. Why should I have to break the Law to have a quiet smoke in my own home on my own land? Why as a responsible adult can I not choose what is best for my life?

    Should “Go Set a Watchman” have been published?
    11+

    I am perturbed by the conflicting stories around whether Harper Lee actually consented to publication. And that plays with a bigger question in my mind about artist’s legacies and what happens to their unpublished or unreleased work posthumously.

    Can you imagine answering a question that did not involve your conceptual thinking to reply?
    1+

    The is a unspoken assumption that questions require the mind to respond. We live in a world where the conceptual answer is no longer enough, rather the experiential or visceral response offers a different perspective .

    Why do we talk so much about moving forward when all we do is repeat ourselves?
    6+

    My passion for history often leads to frustration that we seem to learn so litle from the past, and the pain of a friend’s recent and unexpected marriage break up has been exacerbated by so many glibly advising her to move forward when she can’t (yet).
