| Summary: | Through spoken word, storytelling and hip hop, acclaimed wordsmith Donna-Michelle St. Bernard challenges racial discrimination, the suppression of expression and the trials of activism. By weaving her personal experiences in Canada around a reflection on the Tunisian emcee Weld-El 15's unjust imprisonment for insulting cops and a politician in a song, she creates a space to reflect on how we are part of the systems that oppress us, and on how to be a part of a solution. |
