How are we to engage with views that we disagree with – when they are held by groups that we are part of or that are part of us? In this special episode of ChatterSquare, we present 'Dissent Within', the Eureka Street panel at the 2017 Melbourne Writers Festival.

Dr Naama Carlin and Angus McLeay talk about their encounters with people who challenged their long-held assumptions, and the distance required to see one's privilege clearly.

Naama is an Israeli-Australian academic who is against the Occupation of Palestinian territories. Angus is an Anglican minister from an evangelical background who supports same-sex marriage. Both have found that the basic tenets of faith can reconcile tensions between loyalty and integrity, but also offer ways forward.

This event was chaired by Eureka Street editor Tim Kroenert, with thanks to the Melbourne Writers Festival for the recording.
