AW@L Radio - 2012-03-30 - Racists confronted across the land and Indigenous Resistance + G20 Report and more
Friday March 30th 2012 - The response to white power #boneheads organising in Edmonton and London is strong as hundrdeds of anti-racists and #antifa warriors drive neo-nazis back under the rock they came out from under. These actions occur as communities in Vancouver come together to march for the elimination of racial discrimination and as canadian minister of censorship and deportation Jason Kenney uses questions period to have his government attack No One Is Illegal (http://nooneisillegal.org) as "more than just a noisey protest group." This first section also includes MMC audio of the Musqeam blockade against condo developments (http://montreal.mediacoop.ca/audio/musqueam-against-condo-development-th...) and a piece from Tracy Bomberry on 6 years after the Kanonhstaton land reclamation and subsequent OPP raid on the site near Caledonia on Six Nations - Haldimand tract land.
