  • Tiki Mercury-Clarke
    A Canadian-born singer-pianist, storyteller, lyricist, composer and cultural historian.
    She has become a keeper of Afrikan ancestral wisdom, and, in harmony with tradition, a vessel for the often hard to find, authentic, African North American musical expression called jazz.
  • Organizers from Justicia
    A volunteer run political non-profit collective comprised of activists from diverse walks of life (including labour activists, educators, researchers, students and youth of colour) based in Toronto, Ontario and Vancuover, B. C.
    They strive to promote the rights of migrant farmworkers (participating in the Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program and the Low Skilled Workers Program) and farmworkers without status.
