We listen to the last segment of a three part podcast presented by Deakin University students that participated in last year's Global Journalism Exchange program to Morocco. In the series the students look into how Think Tanger works with different communities to carve out a creative space in a rapidly expanding city. In conversation with the creative minds behind Think Tanger co-founder Amina Mourid and communications manager Youssef el Idrissi, part 3 delves into community building and fostering stronger solidarity networks beyond class boundaries as the city changes.

We hear part of a conversation with spoken word artist Dr. Denise Chapman who shared poems with us last week reflecting on BLM in the US/Turtle Island and the murder of George Floyd. Denise is a storyteller who lectures in children’s literature, early literacy and new media/technology at Monash University. She uses poetry, oral stories, children’s literature, film, call-and-response storying, and interactive digital content as windows and spaces for critical activism. Her creative art and research centre the experiences of marginalization and oppression to illuminate inequities and put forward social change.
