For more than thirty years, human rights lawyer Sonja Cooper has stood beside survivors of abuse in state and psychiatric care, people whose stories were ignored for decades.
In this episode of Stretton Unfiltered, Sonja and Annah explore what happens when the very institutions meant to protect children become the source of lifelong trauma.
Together they discuss the fight for justice, the reality of redress, why so many survivors were never believed, and why breaking the cycle matters far more than simply paying compensation.This is a conversation about courage, accountability and what New Zealand still needs to confront.
