Alex MacDonald Memorial Lecture held on Wednesday, 8 June 2016 given by Bob Carnegie, Secretary of the Queensland Branch or the Maritime Union of Australia. Bob draws upon his many years experience as a trade unionist and activist to address the topic: What went wrong? Changing experiences of working class militancy.
Hopefully, the topic is one that will not only attract interest, but also generate ongoing debate and discussion.
The venue for the lecture is the Queensland Council of Unions building, 2nd Floor, 16 Peel Street, South Brisbane.
The Alex Macdonald Lecture is an annual event of the Brisbane Labour History Association, and is generously supported by the Queensland Council of Unions. The lecture commemorates former Queensland Trades and Labour Council Secretary, Alex Macdonald and the critical role unions have played in the labour movement in Queensland.

Craig Buckley
