Jo Hamya & Jyoti Patel: In a New Light

What happens when the adults we grew up idolising reveal themselves to be flawed? Can we reconcile ourselves with the harm they unthinkingly caused? Is it possible to move forward without a reckoning? Jo Hamya (The Hypocrite) and Jyoti Patel (The Things That We Lost) explore whether we’re better to suffer the sins of those who have gone before in silence, or bring them screaming into the light. Chaired by Barry Pierce.
