Montreal Solidarity Demonstration: Justice for all victims of police racism

5/31/2020

0 Comments

 
These are weird times…
 
I had to finish teaching my first university class online because of COVID-19. I've been confined for weeks trying to work on my PhD thesis. This morning, a humpback whale was spotted swimming underneath the Jacques Cartier bridge. There are people demonstrating and rioting in multiple cities in the US because George Floyd, a black man, died due to police brutality.
 
Due to the sanitary crisis, a lot of teenagers haven't been able to experience the traditional graduation ceremony this year. I remember when I graduated from high school. I did not get a ceremony either. I graduated from an adult education center, the place where you send high school dropouts or people who don't fit in, but for whom there's still a little bit of hope... There, it took me 2 months to get my high school diploma. In an effort to give me the rite-of-passage-experience that comes with this accomplishment, my parents bought me a plane ticket to travel to the south of the United States for the summer...
 
Did I mention I graduated from high school in April of 1992? Right at that time, 4 police officers from the LAPD were acquitted of police brutality on Rodney King, a black man. At the time, the brutal arrest was filmed and widely broadcasted by the media. People were angry. There were big riots in Los Angeles. More than a decade later, I saw Rodney King on the reality TV show Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. King was still alive, but he was struggling with addiction. A few years passed, King was found dead in his swimming pool.
 
Right now, people in Montreal are having a demonstration in solidarity with the ones organized in the United States demanding justice for George Floyd and all victims of police racism. I wish I had my good camera ready, but it's still packed with all of my stuff my last fieldwork trip... and just the thought of opening my suitcases gives me anxiety...

These few pictures taken of the demonstration with my old iPhone will have to do...

This week, the Best C. podcast team let me (Anne-Marie) produce my own episode. Was this wise? We'll let you be the judge of that! In this episode, we are talking ontology(!) with the Thinking In Space/Time working group at the Concordia Ethnography Laband connecting this to an interview Johnny Bee did with PhD candidate and TAG member, Ida Marie Toft, about their work looking at interactive design and gaming. Featuring killer beats by PervClub 
special thanks to Marie-Eve Drouin Gagné and Fintan Nevlan  for their insightful discussion of some difficult topics!
additional production by Pauline Hoebanx and Kris Millett
