This show dedicated to all those who can't stand paying the rent.  About From the Margins: From the Margins (FTM) is a locally (HRM) produced radio show on CKDU, airing every Monday from 8pm - 9pm. It is hosted by Asaf Rashid, sometimes with guest collaborators. It offers a critical angle on local, regional, national and international issues. FTM operates on the understanding that social problems are mainly rooted in the socioeconomic system, capitalism, through which social relations are controlled. The show features live and recorded interviews, recordings of presentations and all that good stuff. For the most part, the show focuses on local / regional issues, but will venture outwards in the case of events that resonate nationally / globally, such as the economic crisis. But FTM will always try and make local parallels / connections.
