Ep. 3 - Christchurch Terror Attacks And Racism In NZ Just Transmissions

An eco-socialist podcast from Aotearoa discussing politics in NZ. In our third episode, we discuss the recent horrific terror attack in Christchurch on March 15th with Paul Kelland, Rebekah Jaung and Briar Wyatt. Joining as our guest is West Aucklander Mukseet Bashir, who following the attacks had a widely shared social media post on his experience growing up as Muslim in Aotearoa.
