Being Black in Toronto
Kwame McKenzie talks to Steve Paikin last night on being black in Boston, London, and Toronto.
Kwame McKenzie is a Senior Scientist within the Social Equity and Health Research section of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health. He is also the Deputy Director of Continuing & Community Care in the Schizophrenia Program, a Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto, and a Professor at the Institute of Philosophy Diversity and Mental Health, University of Lancashire.
He’ll be on The Agenda for the rest of the week.
Should Public Television be Supporting Hate Speech?
Earlier today Warren Kinsella pointed out that Steve Paikin’s The Agenda will be having a very interesting guest on their show. One who, without question, clearly promotes hatred for racial/ethnic minorities, the disabled, and the poor.
Scott Tribe has reiterated these concerns, and provides a sample letter for TVO.
Is that how your tax dollars should be spent?
More importantly, what is the responsibilty of publicly funded media when inviting guests that are clearly beyond the pale of reasonable discourse?
