.MonicaLewinsky and Zadie Smith to headline new feminist ideas festival | jasonfsteger

Monica Lewinsky and Zadie Smith are two of the high-profile speakers set to appear at a new feminist ideas festival to be held at Melbourne Town Hall in November.

"That's across generations, perspectives and cultural and personal backgrounds. There's no one way to be a woman in the world and there's no one way to be a feminist and we'll start exploring that together."Lewinsky, who first became widely known for her relationship with former US president Bill Clinton while she was an intern at the White House, is now a well-respected anti-bullying activist and writer.

Zimet, former programming manager at Sydney Writers' Festival, said she had been thinking about the idea of a feminist ideas festival for a long time. "Zadie Smith hasn't been here in almost 20 years. We're incredibly lucky, and lucky that it coincides with the publication of [her new short-story collection]. There is nobody like her and I'm incredibly proud that she's part of our first line-up."

Hero Smith and captain Paine fine just the way they areThe numbers don't lie and why mess with a good thing - Tim Paine must stay as skipper leaving Steve Smith to focus on what he does best. I think sporting psychologists will in the future refer to the “Paine syndrome, “A captain who leads through other people’s example”.
