In this final episode of the season, we reflect on the theme of hope: what it means to hold onto it, nurture it, and protect it, especially in times that feel unjust.
We’re living in a world where discrimination and division remain ever present, and the noise of those who want to divide can often feel loud. But amidst it all, hope persists, not as blind optimism but as a deliberate, powerful act of resistance. In this conversation, we explore how hope shows up in our work, our communities, and ourselves.
What does it mean to stay hopeful when the headlines say otherwise? How can we hold space for loss and anger while still believing in the possibility of change? We talk about the role of hope in social justice, the quiet power of small actions, and the importance of imagination in building a better future.
As we take a short break before returning in the autumn, we leave you with this episode as a reminder: hope is not naive. It is necessary.
