#36 - LGBTQ protest against Chick-fil-A, Toronto based MPP responds to Islamophobia comments

Summary: To say that this was an eventful week is putting it mild. Ontario MPP responded in the face of a man spewing in what seems to be Islamophobic remarks at NDP politician gurratan singh. Temba had a laugh at this whole ordeal because of this racist man's thinking. Speaking of NDP, leader of the party jasmeet singh was at a labor say parade in Toronto talking about minimum wage being raised to $15 an hour and increasing the next four years. Temba talks about why he does not want that to happen. A principal at a Toronto school is getting lambasted for having a book called "The Guide for white women who teach black boys" with people calling her racist and asking for her to be fired, if people did a qucik google search, they would know that her intentions are pure. And to top off the week, members of the LGBTQ community protested in front of chick-fil-A because of the owner's comments on same sex marriage back in 2012 and also donating to organizations that are anti-LGBTQ. Temba talks about why this protest is a waste of time.
