Healing from Hate

Ex-Nazis help others save themselves from the hateful underbelly of American society

For decades, clandestine Neo-Nazi cells across the United States have recruited vulnerable youths trapped in a cycle of violence and isolation. They offer them a sense of belonging and self-worth, bolstered by political indoctrination. But when individuals become disillusioned, their only way out is to sever ties with everything and everyone they've ever known; a barrier demanding the strongest of wills to overcome. Enter Frank Meeink, Tony McAleer, Sammy Rangel and their team of reformed far-right extremists, who use empathy and understanding to make the transition to life after hate manageable, and put those escaping violence and coercion on the path to recovery and re-integration.

Silent Fish

Uncover the threats overfishing poses to the Mediterranean’s environmental and cultural richness

Although the EU promised to end overfishing by 2020, the Mediterranean remains the most overfished sea on the planet.

A monumental exhibition on Alcatraz inspires thousands to connect with prisoners of conscience worldwide

While under house arrest in Beijing, Ai Weiwei remotely transformed Alcatraz, a former island penitentiary and current national park, into a remarkable expression of socially engaged art.

Visitors were invited to write messages of hope to the imprisoned activists featured in the Lego portraits. By the time the exhibition ended, over 90,000 postcards had been sent. Then something even more astonishing happened: prisoners and their families began writing back.

You've Been Trumped Too

The acclaimed film that the Trump Organization tried to suppress

Investigative journalist Anthony Baxter travels between the Presidential race and the timeless Scottish countryside to explore the troubling confrontation between a feisty 92-year-old Scottish widow and her family and Donald Trump. “There could not be a more important film than this,” wrote Peter Bradshaw in The Guardian, yet the film was temporarily shut down following legal threats from the Trump Organization. As thousands of journalists hang on every Trump utterance, wondering what he might say next, Baxter explores the consequences of his actions. In Scotland, Baxter discovers that Molly Forbes – now aged 92 – is without a proper working water supply, more than five years after Donald Trump’s workers first cut it off while constructing a luxury golf resort. As Donald Trump crisscrosses America in his campaign for President, Molly struggles to find enough water to wash up, feed her chickens, or even flush the toilet. You’ve Been Trumped Too is a remarkable document of the disconnect between political rhetoric and the lives of ordinary people.
