Episode description
The RCMP raid of the Wet'suwet'en Coastal GasLink blockade has inspired nationwide solidarity protests and also an extremely ugly reactionary backlash. Political organizer and frequent commentator on ethnic, migration and climate issues Romy Garrido joins me to talk about the protest movements origins and the media narratives around it, then zoomer activist Rayne Fisher-Quan recounts her experiences this week at one of Vancouver's solidarity blockades.
