Anne Warner discusses becoming politically active when she arrived in Brisbane and joined the Queensland Labor Party. She recalls that in 1976, one year after the Gough Whitlam dismissal, she was instrumental in organising a commemorative protest event at King Georges Square. She notes that Bill Hayden spoke at the event, and in attendance were Donald Horne and Frank Hardy. She comments on the divide in politics at the time - there was either left or right. This polarisation made it easy to take a position.
