High school student walkout in Ontario

Talking Radical Radio

In episode #287 of Talking Radical Radio (September 18, 2018), Scott Neigh interviews Indygo Arscott. Arscott is a grade eleven student attending an arts-focused high school in Toronto. They are gender nonbinary. They are Ojibwe, of the Marten Clan. And they are one of the instigators of the We The Students Do Not Consent day of action, happening on September 21st (or, for those for whom that is a PA day, on September 20th). On that day, students from schools across the province are invited to walk out of class or to take some other action, as they are able, to show their opposition to the new Ontario Conservative government's attacks on Indigenous-focused curriculum, on health curriculum that deals with sexual education, and on classrooms more generally.
