<p>Tonight, we're going to take gender diversity for granted. We're going to say that trans people are real, and we're going to talk about the facts that are behind linear stories. We'll be speaking to transactivists, legal scholars, as well as lawyers who work on this topic, to provide a different perspective than what's being discussed in corporate media. </p>

<p>On the two-year anniversary of the latest escalation of violence in Gaza, this episode turns its focus to solidarity with the Palestinian people. We open with major breaking news: Israel's naval forces have intercepted a large international humanitarian flotilla — the largest of its kind yet — detaining approximately 3,500 activists from over 40 countries, including high-profile figures like Greta Thunberg and MEP Rima Hassan, as well as two Canadian citizens. A released American activist describes harrowing conditions in Israeli detention. We then move into our feature segment: a roundtable discussion marking the 50th anniversary of the International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian Prisoners.</p>

<p>Today, we'll be airing a radio documentary we made back in May 2019. 
Somehow, the documentary never made it into our archives, and so we wanted to share it here again. The documentary talks about the new prison for migrants that was being built at the time, and the alternatives, the detention program that was being rolled out alongside the prison construction project. It also talks about the resistance to the prison construction that happened in Montreal in Laval in 2018 and 2019. </p>
