<p>I just wrapped up a 3 month contract at CKUT community radio as the interim news coordinator the other day, and I will soon be starting work as the news director of CUTV, the amazing campus-community television station of Concordia University. These last few months in Quebec with the student strike and social uprising have been hectic, beautiful, at times scary, and ultimately incredibly inspiring. These are certainly amazing times as well to be working as an independent journalist in Montreal. I feel incredibly privileged to be moving from one amazing grassroots media organization to another, so I wanted to reflect on my experience in these organizations, and the necessity of grassroots media in times like these.</p>
