Miscellaneous
Marius, Melissa and Sarah reflect on the highlights of this year's Human Rights Conference, and the themes of the day, including fear, violence and intersectionality (!). They also chat about two big issues at the moment - marriage equality and free speech - before ending with the hero and villain of the week and "Did You See That?". --- This episode’s Community Partner is the Council to Homeless Persons, whose representative Kate Colvin spoke at our recent conference. The Council is the peak body of the Victorian homelessness sector, and its mission is to end homelessness through policy and campaigning. Right now, it is working with Christine Thirkell, a woman who has had multiple experiences of homelessness, to launch a petition calling for 100,000 new affordable homes. We strongly encourage you to sign it at endthehousingcrisis.org.au/100khomes. And we’ll put that link on our podcast website.
