Description

6 Degrees and CJSW 90.9FM are teaming up for a limited run podcast series for 6 Degrees Calgary 2019. This limited run series will feature both exclusive interviews with 6 Degrees speakers as well as panel discussions from the event itself.

To navigate the politics of division, we need to have a new kind of conversation about how society deals with fundamental questions of belonging, inclusion, and social connection. We need to talk about our many identities, our many languages, and our many histories, from new arrivals to people who have been here for thousands of years. We need to talk about arts and culture as a shared and shareable language. Calgary, as a vibrant, creative, and ever-evolving city, has much to share about the complexities and challenges of real inclusion, and the role of culture and the arts in fostering belonging.

6 Degrees is a global conversation about citizenship and inclusion. We involve the brightest minds and the boldest methods, bringing thinkers, doers, artists, politicians, and activists together in a unique forum.

This limited-run podcast series is brought to you in partnership with 6 Degrees, a part of the Institute for Canadian Citizenship.

Hosted by Rachel Giese What is the role of culture in the face of division? We know that cultural institutions, and the creators within them, are important connectors. They share stories and histories, they express identities and values, and they help us make sense of who we are. There are many programs, policies, people, and projects that work to welcome, connect, and enable the discovery of new perspectives. What can we learn from them about how we can better serve our communities? How does culture connect us to each other, and why is that so important?
