Byron Vincent discusses nature versus nurture, and society's obligations to its weakest.
In a powerful, personal talk, Byron tells the story of his own childhood on a troubled housing estate, of how his surroundings shaped him, and of the choices he felt forced to make. Faced with similar circumstances he asks who can say they would make different choices. Byron explores the moral consequences of this for the rest of our society.
Introduced by Kamin Mohammadi.
Producer: Giles Edwards.
