Manage episode 408206499 series 3505881
On today's episode, we hold a conversation with filmmaker Viveka Melki about human trafficking in Canada (1:39). She released a documentary called Trafficked Voices, in which she heard the stories of survivors and those affected. We speak about how human trafficking has evolved with time, her work on the film, and the important conversations that need to be had.
Then, we look ahead to the Ottawa Black Film Festival this weekend (29:59). We outline some of the events that are planned and walk listeners through the information they need to know.
And finally, James Brennan returns with an episode of Point of Skew (31:33). In his segments he usually examines media bias, but today he's speaking with professor Lauchlan Munro about Bhutan's Gross National Happiness index as a Point of Skew.
