Leap Webinar: Migrant Justice is Climate Justice

The Leap’s webinar with Maya Menezes in conversation with migrant justice activists and organizers across Turtle Island. We dig into what migrant justice is, how policies and worker programs in Canada are built to exploit people and make migrants precarious. As we witness the rise of white supremacy, xenophobia, Islamophobia and hate- we must be bold and connect the dots.

Migrant justice is climate justice.
