Still An Issue

January 6, 2021 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

It was back in 2003 when first I read that John Pilger had won the Sophie Prize. He was surprised, to judge from the tone of his acceptance speech. His journalism has always been quite outspoken about the imperialist and colonialist agendas of many ‘western’ countries like his native Australia, the UK and of course, the US.

This photograph of mine that I've printed onto one of my scarves, links to my memories of Jostein Gaarder, Sophie's World and the Sophie Prize.
