This episode explores the intergenerational impact and trauma of anti-Black racism and violence through the scholarly perspectives and personal experiences of Andrade, Canada Research Chair in Integrative Behavioural Ecology and the University of Toronto Scarborough's vice-dean of faculty affairs and equity, and her guests: U of T Scarborough Assistant Professor Mark Campbell, of the department of arts, culture and media, an expert in hip hop and the music of Black communities, and Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream, Julius Haag of U of T Mississauga's department of sociology, an expert in policing, youth justice, racialization and criminalization.

"There are 40 different cities where people are violating curfew to demonstrate their protests, you know, and honour the life of George Floyd," Campbell says. "So I'm hoping that this is the moment because I won't see another moment like this in my lifetime."

Hosted by Maydianne Andrade, The New Normal is created in collaboration with a University of Toronto Communications team led by producer Lisa Lightbourn.

Those who need support are encouraged to contact the Anti-Racism and Cultural Diversity Office and the equity, diversity and inclusion offices at U of T Scarborough and U of T Mississauga.
