What is the impact of distressing news on refugee- and migrant-background people - who are far from their home countries, and to the family and friends they left behind? Guests Zahra Hussaini and Gul Agha Alizadah, from Christchurch’s Afghan Hazara community, Osmith Vides Contreras, an international student from Colombia, and Maha Elmadani, who identifies as Palestinian, talk to us about anger, fear, impotence, guilt, as well as their need to take action in the face of such news, whether through social media, activism, community gatherings, or writing.
