"This battle in the Federal Court is about defending everyone's right to freedom of speech. It's about ensuring artists can perform with integrity and without fear of censorship." —Jayson Gillham
🚨🚨🚨 EVENT UPDATE: the rally will now start at 9.30am due to a change in court session times. 🚨🚨🚨
Tomorrow (Monday 18 May) is the final hearing in Melbourne Symphony Orchestra pianist Jayson Gillham's case against his employer. In 2024, the MSO cancelled Jayson's scheduled recital after he dedicated a piece to Palestinian journalists targeted and assassinated by Israel in Gaza. He is now suing them for discrimination based on political belief.
Please share widely to support Jayson as he challenges Zionist repression and defends artistic freedom.
