- Tamil Canada in the Media Lens - notes from Prof. Sundar's presentation
Professor Aparna Sundar, Assistant Professor of Politics and Public Administration at Ryerson University, has most kindly provided us with the transcript from her presentation at last week's panel - Tamil Canada in the Media Eye: Protests Under Multiculturalism, hosted at UTSC in November 2009.
Each panelist spoke for about 5 minutes, after which they took questions from the audience. Prof. Sundar covered some important points about the responsibility of the media and the boundaries of "Canadian multiculturalism."
Note: For those who are interested, I've added links to the various articles Prof. Sundar cites. Please note that these may not be the place the piece was originally published, and that the link may not always be active / accessible. -- Koko
