Ordinary People
Welcome to ‘Ordinary People’ the podcast that provides a platform and voice to ordinary people by bringing together a diverse panel to discuss and educate on the issues of today & tomorrow in a free exchange of culture, thoughts and ideas.OP brings together a panel of Ordinary People from differing backgrounds and points of view to discuss societies current, historic & emerging hot topics and challenges.We provide a safe platform to enable the safe expression of balanced, open and honest views as Ordinary People do in every day life.We discuss important issues but avoid the FB or Twitter style one dimensional keyboard debate or rhetoric.OP searches for clarity, rationale & understanding - together. Therefore we journey together and become better informed and educated together.Being tolerant of other views, being open minded to other ideals, but not afraid to present or accept harsh truths is how we lead. We aim to be exemplars of social discourse for Ordinary People.

Episode 15
Racism can be most simply understood as someone behaving differently towards another person based on the colour of their skin or culture. But are there other definitions or degrees of Racism.
In this episode we ask the question to our guests who have differing life experiences or come from different communities. The result is an interesting spectrum of views, some not shared or appreciated but undeniably heartfelt.
