Breach columnist Bianca Mugyenyi speaks on the significance of courageous journalism,  specifically when addressing racism in Canadian foreign policy and how it relates back to the treatment of Black Canadians back home.

We need “reporting that actually connects the dots between social, racial justice, economic justice and weaves together the kind of…transformative narrative that can help people see a path forward”. 

Consider becoming a member of The Breach to support this kind of work.

The power of transformative journalism

The Breach’s investigations don’t just inform our readers—they force the powerful to react.

An exposé on blood plasma privatization led to national headlines. Our revelations about the government’s cozy connections to Big Pharma sparked a parliamentary probe. A report on high-tech price-fixing by mega landlords resulted in a criminal investigation.

From activists to elected officials, people are using The Breach’s journalism to push for transformative change.
