King’s Birthday Reflections – Have We Really Progressed? - With Eva Cox
Sunday, 8 June, 2025
In this episode of A Five Minute Advocate, Eva Cox reflects on the significance of the King’s birthday honours — and uses the moment to ask broader questions about the state of the world. Drawing on her own experience as a Jewish refugee born before World War II, Eva examines the erosion of postwar optimism, the impact of power and technology, and the urgent need to reclaim our shared humanity.
