Hello everyone! We're glad to announce that MDD is back for its 18th year. Our theme is "Counter Populisms!" in response to the rising tide of authoritarian, right-wing populisms that aim to limit democratic action and threaten social change. Stay tuned!✊ SFU Public Square Vancouver Public Library

#OurDataBodies love the idea of “look up” tours for communities and neighborhoods to understand the presence of the surveillance state in their immediate surroundings. #PowerNotParanoia

Competing Visions of Climate Populism starts in 15min! Thank you for all your support. We’re looking forward to a lively and insightful dialogue. #MDDyvr #MDD2019 #ConfrontingDisinformation

The event Trumping Right-wing Populisms with Barbara Perry is cancelled. Not to worry, we are working to reschedule this event in the fall.

I feel hopeful when I talk about Indigenous stories in media, but more hopeful when my son gets up and says who he is, where he is from, and sings a traditional Gitxsan song. ❤️🙌🏾#MDDyvr

Let's take a closer look at BC's child benefit: we're the only province that stops support at age 6 giving a pitiful investment of only $3960 over a child's lifetime compared to over $43,000 in Quebec. Imagine what a difference that could make here in BC! First Call #still1in5
