L’antiracisme au Québec : passer à l’action

with Maxim Fortin



Description

Maxim Fortin is the Quebec branch coordinator of the “Ligue des droits et libertés.” He holds a Ph.D. in political science, with a focus on collective action, the sociology of social movements, and social and educational policy.  In this video, Fortin discusses his experiences in antiracist work, navigating the pandemic and the rise of “politically motivated intolerance for social justice.” For equity, he signals that Montreal must address its lack of diversity beyond awareness and towards antiracist action.

TERRITORIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The Decolonial Hub is located on unceded Indigenous lands. The Kanien’kehá:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal. Historically known as a gathering place for many First Nations. Today, it is home to a diverse population of Indigenous and other people. We respect the continued connections with the past, present and future in our ongoing relationships with Indigenous and other people within the community.

BLACK CANADIAN TRIBUTE

As Black Canadians, land acknowledgements are a moment to honour the implications of being disposed of, displaced and enslaved peoples on stolen lands. To acknowledge our solidarity with the Indigenous peoples of Canada as we frequent and benefit from their lands within our shared histories of genocide, dispossession, and ongoing systemic oppression by settler colonialism. As Black people in Canada, let’s pay homage to the exported Africans, the black and enslaved, who risked their lives for us to be here, together, and live out there without physical chains.
