Noel Counihan and the Brunswick free speech fight

Join historian and archivist Melinda Barrie as she takes you in the footsteps of Noel Counihan and the Brunswick free speech fight. From the theatres, factories and soap-boxes of Brunswick; to dissidents riding atop street-cars and locking themselves in cages to escape arrest. Brunswick was a place of mass mobilisation and dissent. Tour developed by Melinda Barrie, produced by Teishan Ahearne with Moreland City Libraries.
