US National Security Advisor John Bolton gave a blistering speech against the International Criminal Court recently, so we just had to read the juiciest bits out and pick them apart for you, dear listener.

And of course after that, we have our human rights heroes and villains of the week.

We spoke to almost 100 teachers, school principals, support staff, parents of kids with disability and young adults about educating kids with disability in Victoria's mainstream schools. We also pored over every law, policy and practice that affected education for kids with disability, then we wrote a report with over 30 recommendations for how the Victorian government can do things (vastly) better. If a 100-page report seems a bit daunting, join us for a 30 minute primer on what we found.

In this episode, Tania Penovic and Eleanor Jenkin join Marius to chat about the United Nations and its many and varied functions, with a particular focus on its human rights role. They also tell us their human rights hero or villain of the week.

In this episode, Marius, Maria O'Sullivan and Tania Penovic recount the history of offshore processing and explain how we got to the point where refugees are starving on Manus Island. In an act of cognitive dissonance all to common with human rights lawyers, they also perform an act of cognitive dissonance by combining this extremely depressing topic with a celebration of Australia's vote to legalise marriage equality.

Associate Professor Patrick Emerton joins us for his first stint on the podcast to discuss the Australian High Court's recent decision on Tasmania's "anti-protest" law.

Marius, Melissa and Castan Centre Deputy Director Professor Paula Gerber discuss the same-sex marriage survey.

They have a look at what other countries are doing, the challenge brought in the high court to the survey and what happens after the results of the survey are in.

Marius, Melissa and Sarah reflect on the highlights of this year's Human Rights Conference, and the themes of the day, including fear, violence and intersectionality (!).

They also chat about two big issues at the moment - marriage equality and free speech - before ending with the hero and villain of the week and "Did You See That?".

This episode’s Community Partner is the Council to Homeless Persons, whose representative Kate Colvin spoke at our recent conference. The Council is the peak body of the Victorian homelessness sector, and its mission is to end homelessness through policy and campaigning.

Right now, it is working with Christine Thirkell, a woman who has had multiple experiences of homelessness, to launch a petition calling for 100,000 new affordable homes. We strongly encourage you to sign it at endthehousingcrisis.org.au/100khomes. And we’ll put that link on our podcast website.

In this special interview edition, John Lawrence SC talks about the Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory. John - who spoke at our conference in July - represented an Indigenous boy who was abused at the Don Dale Youth Detention Centre when he was 14 years old. 97% of youth in detention in the NT are Indigenous.

Kevin Myles is a civil rights activist for NAACP and our Maurice Blackbun Visiting Activist. We talked to him about civil rights issues facing the black community in America such as incarceration rates, police brutality and more.
