Senior Massey fellow and writer Charlie Foran headlines a discussion with author Monia Mazigh, wife of Maher Arar, and writer and visual artist Shani Mootoo on literature and language: How do words shape who we are, and the societies we create? How do the ideas they contain shape our future? Moderated by Ideas host Paul Kennedy.

Massey lecturer Alberto Manguel and novelist Jane Urquhart, previously scheduled for this event, are no longer able to join us.
