| N | 1:30pm |
(Robert Bontine Cunninghame Graham 1852–1936) “For the miner and the gaucho, the drover and the Sioux / A radical Scots aristo whose deeds of daring do / Championed the people, condemned imperial shame / From Gartmore to the pampas, Viva Cunninghame Graham.”
This event, chaired by Rob Gibson MSP – with panellists, writer and broadcaster Billy Kay; literary editor John C McIntyre; and author Jenni Calder – will explore Graham’s multi-cultural legacy and the relevance of ‘Don Roberto’ for today’s Scotland and our wider international reach.
In association with the Scottish Parliament’s Cross-Party Group on Scots Leid.
