#293 - Joseph Schooling calls for national dialogue on NS & Pink Dot called out for lack of inclusivity

Fresh off winning 2 gold medals at the SEA Games, Joseph Schooling called for a national dialogue on expectations of athletes serving their National Service. We discuss why this call is more significant than a similar rallying cry from Soh Rui Yong a few weeks ago, and why it’s necessary to talk about it now. On Instagram, the organisation behind Pink Dot was singled out by the account SGbrownqueers for its apparent lack of inclusivity, and turning a blind eye to other anti-discrimination causes. Is there trouble brewing before next month’s Pink Dot 2022?
