The 25th May 2020 is a date that will go down in history. The tragic death of George Floyd at the hands of the police, marked the beginning of a call for racial justice and an end to police brutality. Despite the threat posed by COVID-19, protestors took to the streets in over 4,000 cities worldwide. United in their message, they continue their mission for change. But what does this movement mean for the future? What do we do as societies to feel safe?

For the Peace Corner podcast, Zander of +Peace sat down with peacebuilder Jon Rudy  to discuss how we can transform societies to prioritise human security and to eradicate structural violence.
