120, Photographer Darren Ell on documenting protests and social movements

On this edition of Free City Radio (120) we hear from photographer Darren Ell who speaks about documenting moments of protest and organizing within movements for transformative social change, locally and globally. Darren speaks about the ways that these movements intersect and also about efforts to document realities of anti-colonial struggles in Haiti and Palestine. This interview was sparked by a photo series that Darren published called "Speaking Out," which you can find here: https://www.darrenell.com/index/G0000draAtKwaSi8 The photo series visits moments at Occupy Wall Street in NYC, the main photo that accompanies the podcast today, also two protests in Montreal to oppose neo-colonial Israeli state military bombardments in Lebanon and Gaza, Palestine. Finally a protest from the Quebec student strike in 2012, during an action organized to protest the neoliberal hike in post-secondary tuition that was being pushed by the Liberal Party in Quebec. Music on this edition is a short excerpt of the piece "Jinja Encounters" by KMRU, listen to the full track here: https://kmru.bandcamp.com/track/jinja-encounters Free City Radio is hosted and produced by Stefan @spirodon Christoff and airs on @radiockut 90.3m and @cjlo1690am in Tiohti:áke/Montréal, on @ckuwradio 95.9 in Winnipeg and on @cfrc 101.9 fm in Kingston, Ontario.
