Framing Immigration Stories, Hybridity, Filipino Cuisine, and Curling with Racialized Journalists
Description
In this episode, LJ and Will dive into immigration storytelling. ImmLight guest Johna Baylon, a freelance journalist whose stories appear in New Canadian Media, the Toronto Star, among others, shares her background and her vantage point of hybridity that offers her a unique way of narrating immigration stories.
The three then discuss Filipino/a/x-Canadians and that diasporic community's visibility (or lack thereof) in Canada's cultural mosaic.
Guest Johna Baylon joins Lou Janssen Dangzalan and Will Tao for this week’s LightImm Round. Questions are: 1) What is your favourite Filipino dish?; 2) What are the pros/cons of living outside permanently/semi-permanently your country of citizenship; and 3) Who would be on your racialized Canadian journalist curling team?
