Come join the artists/activists in exploring complex issues at Ops Bilang*. Organised by the Centre for Independent Journalism (CIJ). In conjunction with the launch of CIJ’s e-forum, Let’s Talk About…

Let’s Talk About… kicks off with a series of articles on citizenhip, federalism, indigenous rights, culture, civil law and syariah law, religious freedom, gender/sexuality rights, death penalty, rape, workers’ rights, student rights, and freedom of expression.

While some of these topics are such hot-button items that certain political and pressure groups are warning otehrs not to raise them – purpotedly in the interest of maintaining harmony between all communities – CIJ believes that left unaired and undefused, opinions, especially dissent, are time bombs that can be more damaging in the long term.

If you can’t make it tonight, the conversation continues online at LetsTalkAbout.cijmalaysia.org
