Wednesday 24 June | Why we hate

Society is polarised more and more. Lots of groups stand opposite each other, opinions are black or white. Hatred towards others is known amongst humanity throughout history, and systematic hate comes to the surface now more than ever regarding the Black Lives Matter-protests. Why do we hate? And will this ever stop?

In the much-trumpeted documentary series Why We Hate, the mechanisms behind hate and how it arises and solutions to banish it are discussed. The series is produced by Steven Spielberg and it is broadcast by Human the coming weeks until July 26 (mind you: the first episode was available until June 21). It is in English with Dutch subtitles. Not for the faint of heart. Picture by Johan Bos from Pexels.com
