This podcast explores the history, policies, and stereotypes that have led us to where we are today in the fight for racial justice and equity as people of colour. Through lesser known stories of resilience, historical context, and interviews with leaders in this space, we aim to contribute knowledge and to spur self-awareness and lasting change. Bringing you stories and content from Canada, the US, and the World.

As the final episode of the season we're talking all things allyship and solidarity! After listening and learning from 23 episodes this season, we wanted to end by thinking about how you can take this knowledge and put it into ACTION!
Joining the conversation is a friend and fellow podcaster - Rosie Yeung. Our work on anti-racism is different and tackles this issue from different perspectives, experiences, and approaches but we both recognize that this work cannot achieve long term success if we don't work together and support each other across communities.

Migrant Labour is Essential Labour
How much do you know about the people who put food on our tables? There are the farmers yes, but I'm talking about the people who pick and package our food. Canada's agriculture system depends on temporary migrant labour to keep our stores and shelves full with fresh fruit and vegetables, but despite being integral to our food supply chain they are not treated that way. We look into the history, policies and barriers to equitable rights and access for temporary migrant workers in Canada.
Migrant rights organizations you should learn more about and support!

What Does It Mean to "Defund the Police"?
There has been a lot of conversations around defunding the police in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement and calls for police reform. There is a bit of confusion though about what this means in a tangible way - are we decreasing some funding or most of it? Are we getting rid of the police force altogether? If yes, does this create a void where crime will increase? Today we look at these questions and more, breaking down what it means to "defund the police" in Canada.
