Episode 17 - Ola Idris Ali Talks Rom Coms & Black @ Waterloo

Ola Idris Al, Community and Engagement Manager at the University of Waterloo's Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Anti-racism joins us to talk about the BLACK@WATERLOO: BLACK FILM FESTIVAL, a celebration of storytelling for and by Black creatives. Brand new to the community, the festival showcases the diversity and creativity of Black filmmaking, from both political and musical documentaries to the telling of real Black Canadian narratives.

Get tickets to the festival at The Princess Cinemas website here.

Along the way, we also discuss diversity and equity in film-making, and Ola's favourite genre of films: Rom Coms!
