Chanelle Gallant has participated in grassroots movements for sex workers rights and racial justice for 20 years as an organizer, writer, strategist, fundraiser and speaker. She is on the leadership team for Showing Up For Racial Justice in the US, she co-founded the Migrant Sex Workers Project and has worked with sex work organizations locally and nationally including Butterfly, Maggie's, Desiree Alliance, and Red Canary Song. Her writing about sexuality, social justice and sex work has appeared in dozens of publications. Elene Lam is the founder and Executive Director of Butterfly (Asian and Migrant Sex Workers Support Network) and the Migrant Sex Workers Project. She has been involved in the sex work movement and migrant and labour activism for almost 20 years. She has also conducted training for community members, service providers and policymakers on sex work, migration, anti-oppressive practice and human rights in more than 20 countries. Shiri Pasternak is a researcher, writer, and organizer and a professor of Criminology at Toronto Metropolitan University in Toronto. She is the author of the award-winning book Grounded Authority: the Algonquins of Barriere Lake Against the State, and the co-founder and former Research Director at Yellowhead Institute. Shiri notes that the book that she and two of her collaborators spoke with me about—Disarm, Defund, Dismantle: On Police Abolition in Canada—was, in part, the outcome of a gathering called The Abolition Convergence that was set to take place in Toronto in May 2020, but had to be canceled due to COVID. They had planned, she says, to use the event to build “trust and solidarity and understanding across movements.” But rather than accept the cancellation of the event as an ending, the organizers and contributors decided to reformulate the project and reroute their energies into creating the book. This is reflective of a spirit of relentlessness that characterizes the movement for police abolition here in Canada. While Pasternak suggests that abolition in Canada is regularly thought of as a “copycat movement” that follows and reacts to political trends in the US, it's important to see the ways in which their local focus grows out of a commitment to communities and peoples who are directly impacted here by the violence of the settler colonial state. So, for people looking for direction and a means of mobilizing, Disarm, Defund, Dismantle is a book that, as Elene Lam explains, is important as a tool for organizing, and not just as a source of academic analysis. She is profoundly insightful on this point, insisting that we tend to assume that these “false binaries between theoretical, intellectual and practical work” exist, when, in fact, it is within social movements that “theory is generated.” Or, in Channelle's words, the book highlights “frontline community defense against policing” and the “theoretical, political knowledge that comes from that work.” We talk about the manipulative way that the figure of the “average Canadian” is invoked, and how it is usually used to reinforce exclusion. Those seen as “outsiders” are more easily ousted, criminalized, punished, Lam explains, because they are seen as harming the community of “average Canadians.” She argues, that, in this context, the “anti-trafficking movement, the anti-sex work movement benefits everyone except sex workers. So, police, law enforcement, politicians become the heroes,” and more power flows to the police. What will it take to break the identification of working class people in Canada with “white owning classes”? What will it take to dismantle the basic logic of property rights by which so much containment, enclosure and capture continues? How do we grasp at the roots of oppression in Canada and elsewhere?

Episode 12. This is part 2 of my conversation with my friend, Michelle Wescott, an instructional design director at Cornell University. We talk about how society's values have influenced the conversation around black lives matter and saying all lives matter. Michelle discusses why needing and wanting validation from her perspective as a black woman is different than mine. You will also learn an incredible piece of Michelle's family history. I discuss how it's possible to live in a white supremacist culture without being a white supremacist. I share my discovery of a characteristic of white supremacy culture that has a deleterious effect on all people, no matter your race. The article referenced on the characteristics of white supremacy culture can be seen here: Characteristics of White Supremacy Culture, by Tema Okun.Learn more about SURJ, Showing Up For Racial Justice, the national organization.Learn more about the Rochester, NY chapter SURJROC.Please remember to leave a review on Apple Podcast or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Since the events of January 6th 2021, we've learned more about what happened and more details of the nature of the threat. In this episode we break down some of the stories that might have fallen through the cracks or got very little attention by the mainstream press. There are allegations of fore-knowledge by some of the rioters, accounts that members of congress or their staff gave tours to some of the rioters that came back the next day. We are learning how close certain members of congress came to being captured. Also,the scope of police and military involvement in the attack. How these attackers communicated with each other through certain apps and the free speech implications of this technology. There were thousands of people that showed up for the protest and many of them got caught up in the moment of storming the capital and for that they should suffer the necessary consequences. However, there was a concerted effort by some to enter the Capitol with plans, schematics, and a mission to cause real lethal harm. These people need to be hunted down and brought to the appropriate justice. Lastly, we talk about where we go from here and how we get back to both sides working with the truth to move our country forward. We also say the names of our fallen this week Stephon Clark and Casey Goodson Jr. And we highlight two organizations doing great work in the collective justice community, Pledge My Check and Showing Up For Racial Justice. We can't stress enough the need to de-stress your life, space, and mind, while fighting for justice and equality. Please take care of yourself and each other. Like. Follow. Share. Subscribe.

James Baldwin was one of the most important authors, no, one of the most important human beings in the history of 20th century America. A civil rights movement activist who didn’t see himself as an activist. A man who fled the persecution and racism of the United States, only to come back over and over again because he could not stay silent about the horrors inflicted on Black Americans. He was a black man and a gay man, living during a period when both were shunned and persecuted by the country in which he was born and in which he was deeply invested. This episode contains a short history of Mr. James Baldwin, plus his 1963 speech, “The Free And The Brave”. Music is by The Bollweevils, Kira Jari and Danny Denial. PSA’s of the episode are from The National Black Theatre and Showing Up For Racial Justice. Please listen with an open heart and mind, you may learn something, like I did making the episode.

Hey everybody, I just want to let you know that this is a very important episode. With the climate the way it is, there is no way Adriana and I would want to talk about anything else right now. There is a struggle that has been going on for over four hundred years in this country, and is really brought to the forefront right now. We don't have to agree politically to agree that human rights matter. On the show today, we have Rhodes Pierre. He has been good friends with Adriana for 20 years. And I have known him from parties that Adriana has thrown over the years, as well as her wedding, which Rhodes officiated. Among many things he does, as you will hear, Rhodes is a stand-up comic. So, I had originally wanted to have him on to talk about the comedy world during this Coronavirus. Then everything literally blew up with the murder of George Floyd. We do touch on the comedy a bit here. But, the main focus is Rhodes' experiences as a Black man. The best thing we can do right now is listen. So, leave your opinions and judgments at the door, and listen to what Rhodes has to say. And don't worry, it's not all serious..cuz you know... Adriana...and if you know Rhodes...well, Rhodes. And one last thing...I will donate $2 for every download of this episode from now until next Friday, June 19 to Showing Up For Racial Justice and to the Providence NAACP. It will be a $200 max. So please download and share. Just one more note, about midway through, there are some audio difficulties for a very short time that I could not edit out. It may be around 20 minutes in, and doesn't last very long. Alright, now, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

This episode is an attempt to provide a way forward through conversations across race about the difficult topics of racism, white privilege, conscious and unconscious biases, how to identify them and how to address them. This episode is our effort to call in white people to increase their knowledge around racism in its historical and present contexts and engage in positive action to support Black Lives Matter. It also an attempt to extend an open hand in support of people of color. The Evolved Caveman is committed to anti-racism. This is an attempt to join with Black people and other people of color. Now is the time when we anti-racist white people need to commit to having intentional conversations with the people in our lives and on social media who might be conflicted about the protests because of the narratives of violence and looting outlined by those with other agendas. We need to start these uncomfortable, yet supremely important, conversations.

From the costs to black and brown communities, to the culpability of the mainstream media, to what the future will actually look like following the end of Hillary’s historic run, there are many questions and few answers. This is not the post-election conversation we wanted to have. Note: This episode was recorded on the evening of November 9, 2016.
