#WeAreUofT picks up on heated debates around the Toronto Police Service and their School Resource Officer program. Established in 2008 – just one year after 15-year-old Jordan Manners was fatally shot in the chest at C.W. Jeffery’s Collegiate Institute in Toronto’s west end. This podcast includes input of teachers and community organizers arguing that the School Resource Program puts youth in danger and replicates patterns of anti-Black racism and violence against working class communities within the city more broadly.
