Episode 633 ~ June 11th, 2020: BLACK LIVES MATTER
12:01pm - 1:01pm
An hour showcasing Black artists, featuring new music from DEBBY FRIDAY, MISSY D, SHABAZZ PALACES & SPACE AFRIKA.
This is a time for white people, like me, to show up for the BIPOC members of our community. Pledge yourself to anti-racism, educate yourself, and support advocacy groups however you can, be it through donations or some other means of support. Join the demand for radical changes to the way that policing is used and funded here in Vancouver and across the continent.
Here are a few organizations, funds, and resources I'd recommend checking out (but there are so many more if you do some searching).
