Flags, Race Riots and How Rising Inequality is Fuelling Hate

from The Echo Chamber from Tortoise Shack

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack Belfast Green Party Cllr and Community Worker, Brian Smyth has never been shy about calling a spade a spade. Unfortunately the rise in racist attacks (including an attempted lynching!) has meant that he has had to be even more vocal than he’d like. He joins me to talk about the failure of politics, the grimness of inequality, the fraying of societal norms and the things that can be done to reverse the decline.
