  Free media-arts and storytelling program for youth next week in Toronto!!

  July 31, 2012 • Sarah Feldbloom

  

  Finding Words is a free media-arts program for immigrant and first generation youth (age 13-29) who identify as women. We’ll be running the second phase of our pilot project on the 7,8,&9 of August from 12-4pm at 10 Old Meadow Lane, right near Lawrence West subway station.

  We’ll be creating a blog which will feature stories told through sound, video and text about immigration, which will be used as a resource for organizations that serve immigrant youth.

  Bus fare is available for those who don’t live near the program space, and volunteer hours will be given to high school students or others who request them.

  If this sounds like something you or someone you know would be interested in, send an email to findingwords.mam@gmail.com to register.

  Relationship Advice from the National Association of Women and the Law

  February 14, 2012 • Sarah Feldbloom

  

  Just in time for Valentine’s day, the National Association of Women and the Law (with funding from The Law Foundation of Ontario) created an in-depth, accessible resource to help inform diverse women across Ontario about their legal rights regarding money, relationships and the law. It includes relevant information for those entering into happy relationships, and leaving problematic ones. You can take a look at the online manual, as well as a series of podcasts available in English and French right here: http://www.nawl.ca/money, and here: http://nawl.ca/fr/argent . This campaign was put together by radical design studio The Public, captained by Shameless’s Editorial and Art Director Sheila Sampath. Podcasts were produced by Shameless Web Producer, Sarah Feldbloom.

  Stay tuned for news on our upcoming spring/summer money issue, with more information on negotiating finances both in and out of relationships!

  Putting together an alternative playlist

  December 21, 2011 • Sarah Feldbloom

  Readers! Listeners!

  Shameless wants to put together a podcast of music by women, trans, genderqueer and non-binary folk that comes through non-mainstream channels, from parts of the world that often feel out of reach for those of us in Canada. Can you help us?

  Send songs through sendspace.com or another online file sharing program to sfeldbloom@shamelessmag.com, and email some notes about the artist – where they come from, who they are, and what’s awesome about them and their music. How wonderful will it be to hear this playlist?! We’d love to get some of your title ideas too!
