Episode description
How do we go about creating the conditions that would allow people to invest in each other's survival?
On this episode of BlackChat, !Kona and Morgan discuss the recent actions and demonstrations held by land and water defenders on Coast Salish territory (Greater Vancouver Area). As a response to the RCMP raid on the Unist’ot’en camp and Wet’suwet’en lands, Indigenous youth and supporters have stood up against colonial violence and we want to talk about what that looks like.
We look at the timeline of most recent events, considering factors of being arrest-able, and the multiple ways we can show up for each other.
