SUMMARY:Activism Under Lockdown: Anti-Colonial and Racial Justice in Covid Times
DESCRIPTION:\nActivism Under Lockdown: Anti-Colonial and Racial Justice in Covid Times\nThe coronavirus pandemic has been marked by an intensification of colonial and racial violence in Canada: violations of Indigenous sovereign territories, police killings and brutality, migrant exploitation and exclusion, and the racialization of poverty and lack of access to health care. The current uprisings and protests against anti-Black racism across Canada and the United States further highlight the urgency of addressing long-standing systems of racial injustice. While many modes of activism have been disrupted by the pandemic, it also provides an opportunity to imagine and build a radically different “new normal.” Please join us for this panel with organizers, thinkers, and activists from different movements to discuss how we resist colonial and racial violence in these Covid times.\nDate: Thursday June 11, 2020\nTime: 5-6 pm\nAdmission: Free\nTo access: visit the event Facebook page at the appropriate date/time (click here ( https://www.facebook.com/events/608210569796104/ )).  It will be streaming as a ‘live video’.\nNote: you do not need a Facebook account to view\n \nSpeakers: \nCourtney Skye: Mohawk, Turtle Clan, Six Nations of the Grand River Territory; Research Fellow, Yellowhead Institute\n\nSyed Hussan: Migrant Rights Network\n\nYasmine Hassen: Academic & community organizer, Climate Justice Toronto\n\nYogi Acharya: Ontario Coalition Against Poverty\n\nDesmond Cole: journalist, activist, and author of ‘The Skin We’re In: A Year of Black Resistance and Power’\n\nModerator:\n\nAzeezah Kanji: legal academic and journalist; Director of Programming, Noor Cultural Centre\n\n\nOrganizers:\n\nUnited Jewish People’s Order- Toronto\n\n\nNoor Cultural Centre\n\n
