Young people speak out on race unity

From Nine To Noon, 9:21 am on 23 August 2019

More diverse leadership in schools and safe social spaces for young people to gather are two key reccommendations to come out of a series of meetings attended by 150 young people on race issues held around the north island in March and May.

The meetings were organised after the Christchurch mosque attacks by the Baha'i community, supported by the Federation of Multicultural Councils and the Human Rights Commission.  Kathryn speaks with Aidan Macleod from the New Zealand Baha'i Community and Zoha Shuaib - a young Kiwi Muslim, activist and writer from Palmerston North, who was the National Runner-up in the 2018 Race Unity Speech Awards.
