Waleed Aly

on sincerity, compassion & integrity

Journalist, academic and media presenter Waleed Aly is a voice for unity in today’s fast-paced and oftentimes divided world. As both a writer and the host of a major Australian prime time current affairs show, he uses his platform to challenge inequality and promote togetherness. In this unique and at times disarming interview he discusses the importance of integrity, honesty and empathy, from family and politics to aspirations and beliefs. A testament to the power of truth-telling, his words highlight the need to stay true to oneself, be kind and follow your dreams.

 
I think the world needs more sincerity. And I think it needs more humility. I think it needs more people prepared to listen to people they think they don’t like.
— Waleed Aly
