This is one of the most intense interviews we’ve recorded.
At AmFest, we sat down with Andrew and Noleen — visitors from Australia with firsthand experiences living around religious conflict and escalating social tension. The conversation moves fast: immigration, free speech, religious extremism, rising antisemitism, and how fear spreads after high-profile incidents.
You’ll hear arguments many people will strongly disagree with — and that’s exactly why this matters. This episode is about exposure and examination, not endorsement.
Watch with a critical mind.
Then tell us in the comments: Where do you draw the line between free speech and incitement?
What you’ll learn 👇
✅ 🧠 How “fear moments” reshape a country’s politics overnight
✅ 🗣️ Why free speech debates explode after major incidents
✅ 🌍 How immigration + cultural conflict becomes a flashpoint
✅ 🧩 How ideology spreads through institutions, laws, and media
✅ 🛡️ Why communities increase security — and what that signals
✅ ⚖️ How to separate critique of ideas from attacks on people
