Welcome to the Ekta podcast, where we hear from students about how to foster unity and solidarity – or 'Ekta' – on Canadian postsecondary campuses. We take time out to listen to university students as they share their stories about what has made them feel powerful and powerless in their education journeys. We also hear their thoughts on practical steps we can take to create more inclusive, anti-racist spaces.
