Show Notes
Hal Johnson, of 'BodyBreak,' talks to Adrian Cheung about the racism he faced in Canada's media industry, how those incidents drove their will to make the famous show, and why systemic and structural racism continues to be a big problem today.
'BodyBreak', the popular mini-episodes on health, fitness and wellness is something many Canadians remember from the 1980s and '90s. But Johnson's admission this week — that their main motivation was to fight back against racism — has added to a larger conversation about racism, anti-Blackness and diversity in Canada's media industry.
