An anti-apartheid activist in his youth, South African-born Colin Tatz devoted his working life to researching and combatting racism and discrimination. Colin went on to become a professor of politics and later director of the Australian Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies.
The Jewish Independent holds this annual oration to honour Colin’s memory and work, but even more importantly to continue his legacy ensuring social justice is a currency for all Australians to hold, regardless of their background, nationality or skin colour. The inaugural Colin Tatz oration was held in 2020.
We are honoured that this year's Oration will be given by the Hon Attorney General Mark Dreyfus KC MP. The evening will start promptly at 6pm.
Join the Tatz family and The Jewish Independent for some complimentary light refreshments and drinks after the event.
You can hear previous year's orations below.
