Can I Have A Word?
Thursday February 18th, 2021 with Bob LeDrew and Hera Mustafa
The making of an activist: Robin Browne on going from childhood in Halifax to cofounder of the 613/819 Black Hub

We introduce new CIHAW team member Hera Mustafa, who will be bringing her work on criminal justice issues and much more to the show in future weeks, and then we talk to Robin Browne. Robin grew up in the historic city of Halifax, where he was the only person of colour in his Grade Four class, and with detours to Jamaica and Montreal and an education in activism, has become the cofounder of the 613/819 Black Hub.
