What Were They Thinking?: Putting Humanity First

Something a little different on this episode, in the wake of the shocking attack on independent MP Helen Haines last week.

Political violence is on the rise and there's growing division in our community - that's the danger of dehumanising people who see the world differently, or have a different background.

Instead of rushing to judgment and fuelling polarisation, we should be asking “What were they thinking?”

It's a simple questions that could help us rediscover empathy, understanding and common ground in a time when the way we treat one another matters more than ever.
