this is us, this is apathy

Some more clues about why we riot?

Again, the the themes of

  • how we use exclusionary practices to shut down community engagement, 
  • how we use the corporatization of public space to limit freedom of expression and assembly, 
  • how we diminish the capacity of grassroots organizations to speak truth to power and establish a collective voice, 
  • how we define leadership to make us leaderless, 
  • how we let markets drive social policy decisions and 
  • how we respect our neighbours 
arise in this presentation by Toronto's own Dave Meslin.
