English PEN at the Convention on Modern Liberty
May 8, 2009 English PEN hosted the evening plenary at the Convention on Modern Liberty, with Lisa Appignanesi co-chairing the discussion with Observer columnist Henry Porter. Joining them were Billy Bragg, Feargal Sharky, Paul Gilroy and Cory Doctorow. The video of the entire session is now online and is embedded below - Don't miss Cory Doctorow's fantastic stream-of-consciousness delivery on politics and art; and the panel's delightfully erudite and diverse answers to the final question of the day, posed by PEN director Jonathan Heawood.Return to previous page
