We speak with Reakash Walters as she provides an analytical toolkit
for those who want to work with and not merely represent
marginalized peoples and communities. She shares her research
co-conducted with a former prisoner and how her friendship with him
brings to light how Black friendship is criminalized in Canada. An
important conversation about participatory law, and how lawyers can
be part of community struggles in respectful ways.

community organizations. What is an intervention and why is it an
important entry point for community organizations to converse with
the courts. With Sandra Ka Hon Chu, Rosel Kim, Annamaria Enenajor
and Naseem Mithoowani, we talk about four case studies they worked
on, the importance of incremental change, and how the long game is
important to have in sight.

In this episode, I speak with Petra Molnar about her new book The
Walls Have Eyes where her research uncovers what technological
experiments are taking place at various borders around the world on
migrants as test subjects, and how the consequences of greater use
and lack of oversight over tech use on people will shape our
society in harmful ways. We discuss how such technology may
reinforce and reproduce colonial, racist and oppressive ideas and
systems.

Über diesen Podcast
Migration Conversations is a podcast that invites persons to share
their migration stories. Hosted by Professor Jamie Liew, each
episode is an in-depth conversation with people who have
experienced the Canadian immigration system or other migration
regimes up close. We talk to migrants, immigrants, lawyers, policy
makers, advocates and experts. We hope that these conversations
shed light on the challenges migrants face through their own
voices. Please note this podcast is not legal advice.
