60 Minutes: April 30

On 60 Minutes hate crimes in the US, missing persons and a Kelly Rowland profile.

Tomorrow on 60 Minutes, hate crimes in the US, missing persons and a Kelly Rowland profile.

Kelly
What’s more impressive: selling a hundred million albums or having Beyoncé as your best friend? For Kelly Rowland it doesn’t matter because she can claim both, and a whole lot more. At 36 her life continues to be a blur of brilliance. A superstar solo singer who first made her name – alongside the Queen Bey – as a member of one of the world’s most successful girl groups, Destiny’s Child. Kelly is also now a judge on The Voice, where the wannabe stars, if they’re smart, will learn a lot from this very busy and driven woman.

States of Hate
This weekend in the United States President Donald Trump notches up his first 100 days in office. And many would argue that so far he has lived up to expectations. But the rise of Donald Trump has also seen a disturbing surge in the number of hate groups and hate crimes. There is now a genuine fear that we are witnessing a new era of racism-fuelled hatred, and that ignoring it and those who perpetrate hate will do nothing to stop it.

Keep Out
On Thursday the Prime Minister announced he was imposing tough new restrictions on gas exporters to solve our domestic energy crisis and reduce prices for Australian consumers. It’s a drastic step which Mr Turnbull says is needed to save the economy, and more particularly 65,000 jobs at immediate risk. But he also says state and territory governments must allow greater gas exploration to increase supply. That’s all well and good, unless it gives the gas producers a licence to do what they want. Last year 60 Minutes reported how cattle farmer Kane Booth was forced off his land, his livelihood destroyed, when Queensland Gas Company (QGC) moved in to extract coal seam gas. Well Kane is still fighting, and QGC is still acting like a bully.

The Missing
It’s an alarming and surprising statistic: every hour four Australians go missing. That equals 100 people a day, or 38,000 a year, who vanish. Thankfully most are found relatively quickly, but for the families of those who aren’t the torment of not knowing what has happened to their loved one is devastating. Because of her own terrible experience when her 24-year-old brother disappeared, Loren O’Keeffe has decided we must do more to help the families of missing people.
