Above the Border: Recent Episodes

View Details

As some of you know we have started a podcast.

We are a podcast that for the last couple of weeks has been covering political news that’s been happening in the United States of America.

This Friday, would’ve been our third episode release. However, instead of releasing a new episode, we have decided to show our solidarity with the demonstrations of resistance towards the systematic oppression that is taking place in both America and here, in Canada.

So, instead of listening to us talk for a half hour about other news we wanted to share some other journalistic pieces that we think that you should tune into instead this week. We also ask that you don’t stop here. Sign petitions, have uncomfortable conversations, donate! And please continue to educate yourself, as we will be doing the same.
