Hm. Is this for linguistic curiosity? It seems like by “different perspectives” you are seeking political commentary. But I could recommend plenty of sources for hearing people speak English as a second language. Hell, I just found this one today: https://www.youtube.com/@InaYu2024 Seems to be a Japanese oncology pharmacist living in Canada. (Very slight accent, hard to place.)
I’m not interested in the languages themselves. Just looking for different mindsets and temperaments. By different perspectives I don’t mean different politics (although that would be a symptom) but maybe varied worldviews on life.

There’s a TED talk by Lera Boroditsky on how different cultures see the world very differently based on their language. I would ideally like to hear from the people she is talking about, especially indigenous people, but in English. https://www.ted.com/dubbing/lera_boroditsky_how_language_shapes_the_way_we_think?audio=en&language=en
