What's up on APN — May 30-June 5

Black lives matter. Black voices matter.

The Alberta Podcast Network stands with anti-racist action. A small thing we can do at this moment is to amplify some important voices and revisit some stories, conversations and commentary that address anti-Black racism and the Black experience.

To that end, we’ve put together a couple of playlists. Listen to Black voices features recommendations we’ve gleaned from various sources this week (including Black Women United YEG and Brnesh Berhe), as well as our own listening.

From the archives: Some listening for our times re-ups some previously published episodes from members and affiliates of our network.

A plan is in the works to make OtherWise available again in all podcatchers. For now, you can listen to previous episodes of this Edmonton-based podcast dedicated to empowering diverse communities on Stitcher.
