My "Confronting Medical Colonialism in Canada" #TEDx Talk (March 2024) is now available👇🏾

In it, I draw heavily on my book (fightingforahandtohold.ca w/ contributions by @cblackst.bsky.social & Katsi’tsakwas Ellen Gabriel) to call for an end to #MedicalColonialism ✊🏽💜

Indigenous midwifery practices are seeing a revival across the country.

In Quebec, on the Mohawk territory of Kanehsatà:ke, the first home birth in 50 years took place shortly before the official opening of their new multigenerational women’s space.

Fellow flotilla activists are alleging Greta Thunberg was horrifically mistreated in Israeli detention.

If this is how Israel treats a high-profile detainee like Greta Thunberg, I want you to consider how they treat Palestinian detainees.

You don’t have to imagine it. It’s been widely documented:

Today marks the 2nd yahrzeit of the genocide in Gaza. As Jews who are called to work for justice, as Canadians whose tax dollars go towards funding this genocide. With grief in our hearts, we must move into action.

The killing of Nooran is another reminder of how policing today operates through routine terror and violence *and* community outreach, dialogue, and inclusion. If you missed it, I explained how this works in Montreal, as best I could, in this interview with MAKC.

"If we are serious about reducing police violence, contact with armed officers must fall. That means defunding: reallocating money from police budgets to services that prevent harm and resolve conflict without guns." Excellent editorial from The Link. thelinknewspaper.ca/article/edit...
