Yassmin Abdel-Magied, Roman Krznaric & Tommy Orange: Good Ancestor

How do you become a good ancestor to future generations? Tommy Orange, whose 2024 Booker-longlisted novel, Wandering Stars, traces its Native American characters across centuries, and Roman Krznaric, who follows up his book The Good Ancestor with History for Tomorrow, come together with writer and award-winning social advocate Yassmin Abdel-Magied to explore how our own period in history might be reimagined. Together they ask: what is our legacy? Chaired by Kadi Hughes.
