  • On Changing Mindsets

    On Changing Mindsets
    Feb 7 2021
    Growing up in a Township near Cape Town in the post-apartheid era, Julia-Beth Harris absorbed everything like a sponge. Now, as a 30-something poet, artist and writer based in Amsterdam, it's time for her vision to be shared. JB's reflections on identity, race and progress are rich and necessary. Her message is loud and clear: 'Change Happens in the Minds of People'. While we sip some tea, JB explains what Townships are (because really, do we know?). How "Black and Coloured people" were cruelly separated into different areas during apartheid, and how false conceptions impacted her sense of self as a young, dark skinned girl in the family. She speaks about the importance of education, about post colonial reparation and Black Lives Matter and how one creates change by just being present in the world. Also: there will be poetry! I'm so excited for everyone to hear JB's story. And it's just the beginning.

  • On Legalizing all Drugs

    On Legalizing all Drugs
    Jun 22 2020
    Why is legalizing *all* drugs a good idea? Laura Kemp asks this question to respected drugs journalist Thijs Roes; a future thinker, system shaker and science lover. Thijs spent years doing drugs research and it led him into a world of drug policy based on scientifically wrong assumptions."If we don't change the system of drug policy, the war on drugs will be perpetual" he says. "It will cause only more criminalization and on top of that, health risks." In this episde Thijs also colourfully explains how an LSD Trip helped him to quit smoking, and how he believes there should a a legal path to any drug - not because he wants to downplay the risks, but because it will be a safer and fairer society.
