On Replay activist and writer Desmond Cole and cultural studies scholar Shama Rangwala explore how popular culture shapes our world.
In this episode, Desmond and Shama discuss Michael Moore's Bowling for Columbine (2002). In this episode, we discuss a recent Toronto police shooting of a man who was reportedly carrying a rifle. Initially, Ontario's Special Investigations Unit reported that the SIU recovered a BB gun at the scene. Shortly after our recording, the SIU corrected itself and reported that the item recovered at the scene was a pellet gun. Neither weapon is a firearm. We note the updated info here for accuracy, and the notes below include an updated news story.
