Sebastian Johnston-Lindsay reflects upon the lessons of activism and empathy we can learn when an elected official like Alex Bierk takes action and goes against the grain of "acceptable" forms of mutual aid.
Irene Suvillaga writes about how The Mickies are bringing punk politics to bear on the ongoing homelessness crisis in Peterborough with Two Nights for One City.
Issue 3 arrives just in time for the holidays - when exam stress is at a peak and snow blankets the city making it even less pedestrian friendly than usual. As City Council weighs the relative worth of a human life, they're also faced with student demands for better transit. In the letters section, international students are sick of sexy bingos and demand action while a famous scientist writes about the lack of resources for STEM students in labs and libraries at Trent. Also, the debuts of new columns "Dear David" and "Cinevangelism." All this and more in the December Arthur!
Welcome to Issue 3. What to expect: QUEERLINES, a radical insert created by the Trent Queer Collectives, further investigation into investment at Trent, a review of Ted Lasso a groundbreaking new TV show featuring sports and emotions, and much much more!
Happy Holidays from all of us at Arthur! The final issue of 2023 includes an editorial about the latest approach to addressing the homelessness crisis in our community, an interview with the Trent University Alternative Arts Collective (TUAAC), an announcement concerning Trent's newest College, and the return of "Dear David" in The Bowlcut. All this alongside updates from City Hall and the launch of a new section we have opted to call "Fistfuls" - story stories that pack a punch. From everyone at the paper, we wish you and yours a restful holiday season! See you in the New Year!
