Progress Report Episode 2: "Kerry Diotte Sue Us Bitch"

The second episode of your Progress Report pod is now available! Guests Bashir Mohamed and Avnish Nanda join Duncan to explore how conservative politicians are using SLAPP lawsuits to intimidate their critics into silence--with a focus on the local example of Kerry Diotte, the Conservative Party MP who threatened to sue several young people of colour after they dared to call him out for associating with Faith Goldy, one of Canada's most prominent white nationalists. Also, analysis of Alberta's painfully white media ecosystem, their ineptitude in discussing race, and Alberta's long history of citing free speech to defend white supremacy.
