We Seek…
• to help build the world we want to live in, cultivating equity, conviviality and mutual respect, anchored by facts, with plenty of room for open debate;
• to listen to and amplify the voices of the most vulnerable and light bearers of all persuasions;
• to revive timely works of literature from the public domain that either challenge or cast into relief prejudices still exerting an outsized influence on our cultural heritage and contemporary lives;
• to treat all characters as worthy of attention and concern.
