Læs mere The Ethnic Vote

Welcome to The Ethnic Vote, a podcast that talks along the intersection of race, gender, politics, society and culture. The Ethnic Vote highlights minority voices you don’t often hear in Quebec/Canadian politics and culture. We (Karan and Shazma) are artists based in Montreal (by way of India, Toronto, Kenya, etc – ah, migration!). We produce monthly podcasts that highlight minority perspectives on the current political and societal issues in the Quebec and Canadian milieu. We always have something to discuss, but we also love to hear from listeners who have comments, feedback, and topic ideas. Get in touch through our socials! The Ethnic Vote MTL is hosted and created by Shazma Abdulla (@ShazmaA) and Karan Singh, and produced by Alexandra Jurecko.

episode S1 E5: The New Normal cover

S1 E5: The New Normal

In this last episode of season 1, Shazma and Karan discuss how COVID-19 is affecting our lives now and what kind of new reality we might face in the future. They also talk about the latest developments in Quebec, a turning point in the government’s coronavirus response and the impact on healthcare and migrant workers on the frontlines of the crisis. Instead of book and movie recommendations, Shazma and Karan share their thoughts on Mindy Kaling’s new Netflix series “Never Have I Ever”. This is our last episode for this season, but we’ll be back in the fall with new episodes! We would love to hear how you’ve been living through these unprecedented times.

episode S1 E4: Government Response and Overreach in the Time of Coronavirus cover

S1 E4: Government Response and Overreach in the Time of Coronavirus

In this episode, Shazma and Karan again shift their focus from Quebec politics to discuss the federal (and provincial) government’s response to the COVID-19 outbreak. The current situation lays bare the pre-existing inequalities and inadequacies in our system that disproportionately affect vulnerable and marginalized communities. What does the government’s response to battle the spread of COVD-19 mean in terms of government overreach and the rights to citizens? We talk about the eroding trust in our institutions and the debate between individual freedom vs. public good. Karan’s picks: "Schitt’s Creek" (2015, CBC) and "Kabhi Khushi Khabie Gham", a 2001 film by Karan Johar Shazma’s picks: “Girl, Woman, Other” by Bernadine Evaristo We would love to hear how you’ve been living through these unprecedented times.

episode S1 E2: Quebec and its Values (Test) cover

S1 E2: Quebec and its Values (Test)

Shazma and Karan talk about the new Values Test legislation (implemented through the Act to increase Quebec’s socio-economic prosperity and adequately meet labour market needs through successful immigrant integration, Bill 9) that was finally introduced by the Quebec Government. This was one of the principal electoral promises of the CAQ. Will the law withstand a Charter challenge and what does this mean for the larger discussion around systemic racism? We also talk about the proposed changes being made to the education system in Quebec, particularly the teaching of Religious History and Ethics in schools. For more information: Bill 9 (http://www.assnat.qc.ca/en/travaux-parlementaires/projets-loi/projet-loi-9-42-1.html?appelant=MC) Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/check/art2a.html) Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms (http://legisquebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/showdoc/cs/C-12) Check out our earlier episode “Episode 3: The Problem with Secularism” for more information on Secularism in the context of Quebec.

S1 E1: Pulling the Race Card in Quebec

Karan and Shazma discuss the “controversy” surrounding the Liberal Party of Quebec’s leadership candidate Dominique Anglad, and questions around race and belonging abound as a result. We problematize the LPQ leadership race, discuss “pulling the race card”, what it means to be Quebecois/Quebecoise, belonging as a person of colour in Quebec, For more information: Information on the 2020 PLQ Leadership Race Public Consultations on Systemic Racism in Quebec Karan’s picks: Find Me by Andre Aciman Knives Out Parasite Shazma’s picks: Blindspot: Hidden Biases of Good People by Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel We would love to hear what you think!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
