Criminologia Podcast
Criminologia is an academic, criminology-themed podcast. Created by two PhD students at the Centre for Criminology and Sociolegal Studies at the University of Toronto, the series aims to facilitate critical dialogue and present theoretical ideas, empirical research findings, and policy solutions not only to social science scholars, but also criminal justice practitioners and the general public.
Justice Focus
A criminology podcast that focuses on the latest exciting projects happening in criminal justice all over the world.
It brings together practitioners, front line staff, NGO workers, academics - basically all those people working passionately and compassionately in criminal justice systems.
Prof Agard
Currently, as director of SciXchange, Dr. Agard is passionate about making science accessible, engaging and inclusive of all groups and people of all ages. For over a decade, she has worked with youth from various socioeconomic backgrounds, focusing on youth from vulnerable communities. She embraces opportunities to speak about learning and applying science in everyday life and various career paths.
HERstory in Black: Emily Agard
CBC brings you stories from HERstory in Black, a Toronto-based digital photo series profiling 150 black women from the GTA and other parts of Ontario by How She Hustles, a network of 5,000 diverse women.
African Canadian Online
This site provides information on African Canadian artists and their work, links to other Canadian resources on the web, and updates about the activities of the Centre.
This website began in 1996 as a course project by students at York University's Atkinson College, and was expanded by another class in the summer of 1998.
Afropolitan Dialogues
AfroToronto.com is a trusted source to celebrate and showcase excellence in Canada's multifaceted black community. Their podcast, Afropolitan Dialogues, features both established and emerging African-Canadian and international movers and shakers.
As an incubator for Black artists, dancers, filmmakers, writers, and creative individuals, The Laboratory for Black Creativity (The LBC) aims to create space, encourage dialogue, and develop opportunities for persons who identify as Black. The LBC prioritizes Black people and projects but we aim to be a collective that engages in intersectional work with persons and projects that centre racialized identities, LGBTQ2S+, persons living with disabilities, and non-Anglophone communities of the global South and Diasporas.
21st-Century Black is a podcast hosted by Cheryl Thompson, Assistant Professor at Toronto Metropolitan University in the School of Creative Industries, and Emilie Jabouin, Ph.D. Candidate in the Joint Graduate Programme in Communication & Culture, Toronto Metropolitan University and York University. We have spent the past two years having many thought-provoking conversations in private and we felt that now is the right time to share these conversations in a public forum. This podcast will cover social and cultural history in Canada and across the Black diaspora, media and popular culture, and contemporary discussions about race, anti-Black racism, the colonial, post-colonial and de-colonial. This podcast is funded through a SSHRC Insight Development Grant.
