Equal But Not Equal: France's Inhumane Hijab Ban

In this solo episode, Andrea provides a bit of gossip and fun facts around the 2024 Paris Olympics including:

The Canadian women's soccer team's drone scandal,
The debut of the IOC Refugee Olympic Team emblem, and
The first equal female to male gender participation Olympic event.

Andrea also discusses the inhumane decision by France to ban hijabs for their athletes in the Olympics, exploring its broader implications and urging privileged listeners to speak up, both in Canada and abroad.
Silence only lets the narratives have power. The power of these harmful narratives from politicians and Western culture will remain powerful if they are not challenged. Speaking up is a way to create new narratives - narratives of collective liberation.
Liberation for one group of people is liberation for all people. Collective action can move us forward in creating equitable and beautiful spaces, where no one has to fear being themselves.

Defining Us

How do you define yourself? Is it based on where you originated from? Your ancestors? Your race? In a colonial system, why must we have to defend who we are? Isn’t how we self-identify enough?

In August of this year, the Federal Government awarded billions of dollars to non-verified Indigenous businesses. Proving who we are to a system which tells us who we need to be isn’t living our human experience at all. As the backdrop for our kick off of the second season of Canadian Salad, we will take a deep dive into the complex issues of identity, race, culture, and ethnicity. There is nuance and complexity in identity, with our ever evolving journey into new locations, new cultures and new societies.
Self-determination is a right. And it’s also complicated. How do we advocate for that right for ourselves and for others in Canada? What does a self-determined society look like - especially for underrepresented people? Join us for our first episode of Season Two!
