I would strongly encourage each and every one of you to read the following article, as it cuts to the core of what TASS aims to do. To quote: "The real challenge is to persuade our fellow Australians that each person matters, not because of the choices they make or the qualities they possess, but because they are human, and that a society is measured by the quality of its relationships. That is a hard task in which there will be no large gains. It is done best through personal conversations and informal discussion. It will involve showing the shared humanity of people from whom it is being withdrawn, and by inviting others to make that humanity a matter of personal experience not of abstraction. It will also be necessary to point out the human consequences and the brutal assumptions of policies that effectively deny the humanity of unliked groups of people and reduce human wellbeing to increased economic activity."
