This episode features Robyn Maynard’s keynote talk, Toward 21st Century Black Liberation, from Social Justice Week 2018.

Robyn Maynard is the author of Policing Black Lives: State Violence in Canada from Slavery to the Present, a critically-acclaimed national bestseller. Maynard has a long history of involvement in grassroots movements against racial profiling, police violence, detention and deportation.

Building on Policing Black Lives, Robyn Maynard provides an overview of state-sanctioned surveillance, criminalization, and punishment of Black lives in Canada. Drawing on examples from Canada’s immigration, child welfare, and criminal justice systems, the event explored the still-living legacy of slavery across multiple Canadian institutions.

It was part of the Mandela ECI Lecture series, a unique series of keynote talks by renowned Black public intellectuals and artists. The series was presented by Social Justice Week in collaboration with TMU’s Office for Equity and Community Inclusion.
