(2:06 - 5:10)  This month marked the 10-year anniversary of the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York City. The event, and the wars that followed have affected lives around the world. In this episode of rabble radio, an interview about how the effects of 9/11 have been felt by Muslim women.

(6:21 - 13:18) As part of Aboriginal awareness week, Clifton Nicholas speaks about the portrayal of aboriginal peoples in the media.

(14:06 - 15:56) A rebroadcast of the eulogy for Jack Layton delivered by Stephen Lewis.

(16:17 - 30:31) Layton's death gave many the impetus to become more involved in their communities, and at rabble.ca  we've activated a new online tool to make connecting to your community a little easier. It's called the activist toolkit. And that's where we're starting the show today.
