Someone was just asking me about stories/videos of people from two different mindsets sitting down to hear each other's story. In the spirit of @rcbregman's new book Humankind, I thought that would make for a good thread so here goes Please share more! (& get a tissue ready)

1. My ever-favourite, Look Beyond Borders from @amnestyPL, bringing together Europeans old and new. It was filmed in 2016 in the spirit of #RefugeesWelcome near Checkpoint Charlie

2. Worlds apart: A classy ad from Heineken where people have to team up and overcome their differences.

3. @britainconnects is bringing people together right now, but my favourite is from their original series where a businesswoman from Syria meets a Brexit-voting fisherman, showing the power of social contact to change minds.

4. @newneighbours1 is a documentary series about new arrivals in Europe and how new encounters change the lives of people who move, and the people who welcome them. https://newneighbours.eu/documentaries/across-the-road-worlds-apart/

5. #LoveHasNoLabels: this is a short film but worth the time, again showing how difficult moments brings out the humanity in peop;e, via @LoveHasNo_ https://twitter.com/LoveHasNo_/status/1062329230816632833?s=20

6. We are all connected. You probably heard of Danish TV2's all that we share ad, but it is the sequel that gets me every time.

7. We are Bristol. Inspired by TV2, which inspired similar videos in several places. HR @DTBarclay

8. Proud Fathers. A slightly different take on the theme but I love this Dublin Bus story about fathers accepting their LGBTQ+ children. #pride2020
