These are my top ten takeaways from reading Christopher Hitchens' "Letters to a Young Contrarian". This book can be a bit tricky to get your head around so I hope that this video will help give you some insight into what it has to say and why you should read it.
Correction: In the video I mentioned that the Irish government has made efforts to find housing for the homeless during Covid-19; I must also acknowledge all of the brilliant work being done by charities, NGOs and local communities which continues to be vital. A big thank you to all of these people!
This is my first video so I would really appreciate any feedback that you have in the comments!
Thanks for watching!
