Today's exciting topic is movements! How do women (and diverse folk)-led movements effect change politically outside of typical government structures?

Today's star-studded guest panel includes Heather Jarvis, SlutWalk co-founder and program coordinator of SHOP, the only sex worker rights program in the province; and Amelia Reimer, local activist and artist of Metis ancestry who works with First Light: St. John's Friendship Centre as a cultural support worker.
