148 # R I S I N G Y O U T H C O M M U N I T Y I M P A C T Using podcasting as a medium of activism, #RisingYouth grantee Daniella Barreto and her team at RUDE the Podcast discuss the concerns of young people who are passionate about social justice issues. Daniella used her grant to launch, promote, and market this brand new podcast made for and by diverse young Canadian millennials. She and the RUDE team produced five episodes covering a wide range of challenges – from privacy in our increasingly digital world to racial profiling, from cannabis legalization to issues around allyship. This podcast aims to cultivate deeper conversations on what it means to fight for an inclusive, just, and equitable world in today's political climate. " We've reached over 2,000 downloads and 3,000 streams of our episodes in the past 4 months since we've launched. Most of these have come from across Canada and the United States, but we have been listened to in 20+ countries around the world. Furthermore, parts of our episodes have been used to launch broader conversations on identity and justice on Radio-Canada, CBC Podcast Playlists and the Huffington Post."
