Paul Kelly and the ministry of connect

“Connect. That’s what I want to say to the mixed row of young faces in front of me, some earnest, some giggling, some bored. Connect. Some distracted, some looking down, some asleep. Connect. That’s all I want to say to them – connect, connect, only connect.” Paul Kelly, How to make Gravy.

And I admire the way Paul Kelly uses his gifts of connection to tell stories. Stories we tend to walk past. Indigenous stories.
