Orwell said, “Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present, controls the past.” As the Trump regime seeks to erase Black history, trans history, women’s history - and our border - here’s my #AlbertaUnbound with author & activist Jesse Lipscombe. We discuss his family’s Black history in Alberta, Trump’s attacks on DEI, and how to find the courage - and build the coalitions - to resist. #BlackHistoryMonth #DEI #Morehouse #AmberValley #Alberta #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada #yeg

As the Trump regime sets out to erase Black history, trans history, women’s history - and the Canadian border - this new episode of #AlbertaUnbound feels urgent: my conversation with Black author & activist Jesse Lipscombe about his family’s extraordinary Alberta history and about how we find the courage and resilience to resist - by building connections, and finding radical patience. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/alberta-unbound/id1511810939?i=1000693071576 #BlackHistoryMonth #DEI #cdnpoli #Alberta #Edmonton #yeg #AmberValley #SenateofCanada

As Black History Month begins - and as Canada-US relations grow increasingly fraught, I wanted to share this mini doc I made a few years about about Amber Valley, the northern Alberta community settled by African-American pioneers. A reminder of how tangled our roots really are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsRkZz1KJB0 #BlackHistoryMonth #Alberta #AmberValley

As Black History Month begins, I wanted to share this documentary I produced last year, about Amber Valley, a farm community in northern Alberta, pioneered by Black Americans fleeing racial violence in Oklahoma, Mississippi, etc. I hope you enjoy this look at an intriguing chapter in Alberta's Black history, and the story of the multicultural legacy of Amber Valley's Black settlers. https://youtu.be/MsRkZz1KJB0 #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackHistory #Alberta #AmberValley #BlackMastodon #Athabasca #SenCA
