Aug 31 is International Overdose Awareness Day #IOAD2024 thanks Friends of Medicare for assembling this list of events/actions to commemorate friendsofmedicare.org/ioad_2024

Been working on a big project about early banjo music that has got me excited - been going through a lot of pieces from 1855 and thinking about the cultural soup this music came from - African/Irish/German/English/Indigenous etc etc etc -

when strikes are "illegal" then you must "illegally" strike. the strike is an essential linchpin of worker power, we can never let anyone take it away from us.

We all love you forever, baba singh!!! #SweetGoodMorning CKUA Radio #BabasGrooves #MidMorningMojo #TunedInTogetherForever 📷 @shawnalemay

Tonight, I’m thinking about Justice Murray Sinclair and of the times that I was lucky enough to hear him speak about his work with the TRC. This moment stands out for me. It’s his answer when he was asked, “Why can’t you just get over it?”
