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?
