Welcome to Scarborough Studies Collective’s podcast - Scarborough Stories. The Scarborough Studies Collective is an interdisciplinary and intergenerational collective of local scholars, artists, community organizers, and residents from various fields and knowledge backgrounds. At the Collective, we felt that it was important that we create a platform where Scarborough residents can express themselves freely and claim their own narratives. Therefore, Scarboro Stories, the podcast was formed. We especially want to acknowledge that this is part of the larger fight to address social inequities not just in Scarborough but also in other systematically oppressed communities around the world.

This episode, we have invited Christina Arayata. We talk about the systemic violence BIPOC students face in Ontario's education system and her work at the Ontario Thriving on Campus Project.
