El Jones on Anti-Black Racism

In Episode 65, we talk to El Jones, a Black professor, author, spoken word artist, activist and radio show host! She is a powerhouse who uses her platform to lift the voices of Black people in prison and always gives credit to those who came before her. She also works in solidarity with Indigenous peoples to combat racism in Canada and seek justice for all people. Her book: Live from the Afrikan Resistance published by Fernwood Publishing is a collection of her spoken word poetry which speak of community and struggle. https://amzn.to/2XJx44d Here is the link to her show: Black Power Hour: https://www.ckdu.ca/shows/227 Link to some of the articles she has written for the Halifax Examiner: https://www.halifaxexaminer.ca/?s=el+jones This podcast has also been posted on my YouTube channel under the Warrior Life Podcast playlist, for those who prefer video over audio content: https://youtu.be/mmcxZVNOHsU Here is a link to my video calling for Indigenous solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters to end police anti-Black racism and violence: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGNy0Gp0Alg&t=2s Please note: Nothing in this podcast advocates for violence on Indigenous territories.
