Yes/No/Maybe
Manage episode 396931271 series 3387559
Welcome to season 2 of Delorean Philosophy.
On Saturday, 14 October 2023, Australians voted in a referendum about changing the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing a body called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. The referendum did not pass.
In this episode, Steve McAlpine takes stock of this outcome, and how the vote cast a light on a deeper problem in society.
Steve asks why complex societal issues are often reduced to binary facets: YES or NO? Why does there seem to be no room in the middle?
In the wake of the referendum failure, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called on Australians to show more kindness to one another.
Steve points out that it is indeed kindness - but not the type many would expect - that may save our increasingly polarised culture.
