The Brighton Paradox: OMERTÀ
Update: 2023-02-06
Description
In this episode, we consider how the city that is famous for alternative lifestyles, liberal attitudes and minority pride - might also be the city that can amplify groupthink, homogenous views and narrow perspectives
And we try to answer the following questions:
- Are multiple views and perspectives given the space they need?
- Are narratives about Brighton & Hove ambitious, fair and honest?
- What does it take to be taken seriously?
- Is the People's Republic of Brighton & Hove a genuine force for independent thinking or a smug self-congratulatory forcefield?
- Is Brighton & Hove a racist city?
- Why is community football so powerful?
