Sandy Hudson is one of the presenters of <a href=\"https:\/\/scholarstrikecanada.ca\/quick-program-overview\/\">Scholar Strike\u2019s teach-ins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/d41586-020-02495-y\"><em>More testing alone will not get us out of this pandemic<\/em><\/a><em> &#8211; <\/em><strong>Nature.com<\/strong><br \/>\nThe article talks about inequities in the midst of Covid-19 and how community engagement is important. \u201cWe cannot assume that we should first find some perfect technological solution and only then engage with communities to learn what is needed for their access and participation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>\u65f6\u5dee In-betweenness<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzsprout.com\/1171871\/4249853-01\"><em>#01 \u4e2d\u56fd\u8bed\u5883\u4e0b\u7684\u79cd\u65cf\u8bdd\u8bed\u548c\u79cd\u65cf\u4e3b\u4e49\uff08\u4e0a\uff09<\/em><\/a>(<strong>In-betweenness<\/strong>, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzsprout.com\/1171871\/4249853-01\">#01 Racial Nationalism and the discourse of race in Chinese context, part 1<\/a><\/em>)<br \/>\nThis is a podcast that I&#8217;ve followed for quite a long time. In-betweenness is hosted by Chenchen Zhang. It gathers Chinese scholars from around the world to talk about social issues in contemporary China. The podcast is in Mandarin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Marinel Kniseley<\/h3>\n<p><strong>CodeSwitch<\/strong> is a podcast hosted by people of colour who bring on fantastic guests to critically examine and discuss race as it pertains to\u2026 everything. For the timing of Scholar Strike I particularly recommend the September 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, 2020 episode titled, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/podcasts\/510312\/codeswitch\">Balls and Strikes<\/a><\/em>, which talks about strikes as they have been utilized historically, the unequal sacrifices undertaken by those involved, and discusses the NBA and WNBA strikes within this context.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/a-shot-of-truth\/id1436122328\">A Shot of Truth<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is a podcast hosted by an amazing young undocumented Latinx activist in Bellingham (who sat with me on the board of the Whatcom Peace and Justice Center). Real voices, real stories from undocumented folx in the U.S., discussing the personal impact of global and local events and everyday challenges to people on the margins, while also imagining the world they want to see. Powerful stuff.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Undoing Border Imperialism<\/strong>, by Harsha Walia<br \/>\nWritten by a South Asian scholar and activist, this book details the everyday violence that is waged upon migrant workers in North America, provides clear analysis for the ways in which these practices are produced by global neoliberal economic agendas and sustained by policies and actors at every level, while demonstrating how immigrant rights movements are fighting to make change around the world. It is basically a road-map for how to conceive of and realize a world that values people over their labour with very helpful, actionable strategies.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Greg Laychak<\/h3>\n<p>UFV alumnus <strong>Mo Dhaliwal<\/strong> recently wrote a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/racism-globals-surface-level-reaction-its-deep-mo-dhaliwal\/?trackingId=y18jvr9J%2F%2F5CHJRxUyYhHg%3D%3D\">LinkedIn article recapping his experience at Global BC<\/a> that is very much worth reading. His name popped up recently in an episode of Jesse Brown&#8217;s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadalandshow.com\/shows\/canadaland\/\">CANADALAND<\/a><\/strong> podcast, as there are many episodes these days examining the structural racism in Canadian mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>A great issue of the <strong>Washington Post<\/strong> last November, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/magazine\/2019\/11\/25\/visualizing-racism-photo-essay\/?arc404=true\">Visualizing Racism<\/a><\/em>, gives perspectives through photographic work about the challenges of visually representing concepts around race. It&#8217;s not just a collection of great photo essays touching on themes of racial justice, but an excellent starting point for those interested in finding visual creatives making art that pushes the conversation forward.<\/p>\n<p>Sarah Lewis guest edited the incredible <em>Vision &amp; Justice<\/em> issue of <strong>Aperture<\/strong> magazine in 2016. Her <a href=\"https:\/\/aperture.org\/blog\/vision-justice\/\">editor&#8217;s note<\/a> is a must-read, and back issues are still available for order.<\/p>\n<p>Though not local, One Dish with One Spoon Treaty territory Niagarans Sean VanderKlis and Karl Dockstader have a great episode about <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/ca\/podcast\/were-smarter\/id1224041526\">what school means to Indigenous people<\/a> from their podcast <a href=\"http:\/\/1dish1mic.com\/\">One Dish One Mic<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Jeff Mijo-Burch<\/h3>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/listen\/cbc-podcasts\/203-the-secret-life-of-canada\">The Secret Life of Canada<\/a>,<\/em> By Leah-Simone Bowen and Falen Johnson<br \/>\nThis podcast on Canadian history delves into Canadian history with an eye on highlighting aspects that are forgotten, ignored, or intentionally hidden. Since it began in 2017, most episodes have included discussion of race and racial justice, with many specifically focused on the topic.
