Authors Boycott Adelaide Festival Over Palestinian Author Controversy
Authors including Michelle de Kretser and Melissa Lucashenko are boycotting Adelaide Writers' Week in protest of the festival's cancellation of Palestinian Australian author Randa Abdel-Fattah's appearance, citing censorship and anti-Palestinian racism as reasons. The festival's decision was influenced by concerns over community sensitivity following recent events, leading to widespread criticism and withdrawal of support from several authors and organizations.
