Research in the service of struggle

Talking Radical Radio

In episode #449 of Talking Radical Radio, Scott Neigh interviews Jen Gobby and Molly Murphy. Gobby is a postdoctoral researcher at Concordia University in Montreal and the founder of Research for the Front Lines, a new organization that fosters collaboration between climate and environmental justice movements in Canada and people in universities with the time and skills to do the research that movements need. Murphy is active in front line Indigenous-led land defence struggles, most recently the forest-protection blockades at Fairy Creek in Pacheedaht territory on Vancouver Island, and has been part of a collaboration with Research for the Front Lines that unearthed important new information about how the RCMP represses land defence struggles in the unceded territories on the west coast.
