Is political violence becoming normal? - ChangeMakers Digest
Episode 29
Monday, 9 November, 2026
There has been a rise in political violence over the past decade. While we are still unclear about the motivations behind the horrendous attack on Helen Haines, it happened in a context where attacks on political figures in Australia has rapidly increased in the last year.Meanwhile there are an increasing number of attempted political assassinations in the US, alongside a rapid rise in state violence across many countries, with the ICE attacks on immigrants in the US or police attacks on protesters in France, Iran and Hong Kong.In this conversation, we unpack what is going on and look at what it means when violence becomes accepted democratic life. We have no magic answers, but we look at what might see it shift and the implications for us if it does not.Also note - towards the end of the chat my microphone has some issues! Apologies for this.======For more on ChangeMakers check us out:Via our Website - https://changemakerspodcast.org (where you can also sign up to our email list!)Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMakersPodcast/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changemakerspodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.com/@changemakerspodcastBlue Sky: https://www.threads.com/@amandatattersall.bsky.socialFor more about Samuel:Personal site: https://www.samuelmchu.comThe Campaign for Hong Kong: https://www.thecampaignforhongkong.orgDemocracy in Flight: https://www.democracyinflight.orgLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samuelmchuTwitter/X: https://x.com/samuelmchuFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/samuelmchuInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/samuelmchuFor more about Amanda:Personal site: https://amandatattersall.com/On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandatattersall/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amanda.tattersallBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/amandatattersall.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@amandatattersallHer new books are called People Power in Cities & Conscious Tribes: thinking differently about making a difference.
