Melissa Haughton is a storyteller of Jamaican descent living in Toronto - where she also happens to work for the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company). Yep, even Canada has Black people, and it ain’t all roses and maple leaves up there. Whether Melissa’s on or off the clock, you can’t deny the sense of wonder and curiosity she brings to shows like “So What Are You” (cultural heritage and identity - self produced), or “Hard to Stomach” (food insecurity across Ontario - CBC). Through a conversation about lunch tables, hair color, and hot sauce - we learn a lot more about the nebulousness of Canadian identity.  LEARN ABOUT MELISSA: melissahaughton.com, @melissahaute PODCASTS“So What Are You” - https://smarturl.it/sowhatareyou“Hard to Stomach” (CBC) https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/community/hard-to-stomach-podcast-1.5391488 MENTIONSTV: Insecure (HBO): imdb.com/title/tt5024912BOOK: They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us (Hanif Abdurraqib): goodreads.com/book/show/33947154-they-can-t-kill-us-until-they-kill-us  Learn more about your ad choices.

Melissa Haughton is a (Canadian) Storyteller Who Likes to Pod

Melissa Haughton is a writer, content creator and podcast producer I truly look up to (I urge you to listen to her array of series and docs, all exceptionally well produced and full of insight) but those three titles barely sum up the greatness. In addition to Melissa’s latest series, So What Are You?, highlighting our complicated and evolving relationships to cultural identities, we discussed her past and present projects and various endeavours, and how they have always, and continue to be, action methods to inspire change.
