Human Nature (2019)
Fascinating
A fascinating insight into the discovery of CRISPR technology. The documentary covers the Human Genome Project, the discovery of resistant bacteria, some inherited human diseases, the scope of CRISPR technology for the evolution and advancement of humans and for treating or eliminating genetic diseases such as sickle cell or cancer (as well as touching on the potential dangers of this technology and ethical considerations ).
I have a Bio Sci degree from many years ago but I thought this documentary used really clear explanatory language and excellent animations to convey the scientific concepts.
Fascinating and worth a watch! Looking forward to seeing the future applications of this technology and its potential to eradicate terrible diseases.
Servant or Slave (2016)
Necessary viewing
A heartbreaking and enraging documentary about the Stolen Generations of Indigenous people in Australia. Several Aboriginal women share their stories of their forced removal as very young children, their lives in the missions and care homes and how they were forced to work for almost nothing. They share their traumas and loss of identity and how they are still waiting for reparations from government many generations after these terrible practices began.
Donating to the healing foundation after watching this.
