Getting angry at the system

If I pick up a tree branch and smash your window with it, you're going to be angry, and your anger will rightly be directed at me. But if a tree branch smashes your windscreen during a cyclone whose intensity has been caused by global warming, you're still going to be angry — but who or what exactly should you be angry with? This week, a conversation about responsibility for systemic injustice. Guest: Stephanie Collins, Associate Professor in Philosophy, Monash University Melbourne Producer: David Rutledge

This week, a conversation about responsibility for systemic injustice.
