Bridget Potasky and rabble's Jack Layton Journalism for Change Fellowship

Since 2017, rabble.ca and the Institute for Change Leaders has presented the Jack Layton Journalism for Change Fellowship: a fellowship with the objective of supporting emerging writers and journalists who are passionate and engaged in developing unique voices in social change reporting. Our current fellow is Bridget Potasky.  This week on rabble radio, Bridget sits down with rabble editor Nick Seebruch to talk about her series on Canada's recent frequent use of the notwithstanding clause and what her plans are after the fellowship wraps.  About our guest  Bridget Potasky is a graduate of Toronto Metropolitan University, where she earned her degree in Politics and Governance. Since completing her studies, she has been actively involved in peacebuilding and human rights advocacy.  Bridget has worked with Human Rights Action Group, contributing to efforts that address mass atrocity crimes, transnational repression, and violations of international law. She has also collaborated with Canadian Friends of Peace Now, writing about issues of injustice, social movements, and democracy in the Middle East. Through this work, Bridget has developed a deep commitment to amplifying the stories of underrepresented voices and holding power to account.
