Vicky Mochama is a Canadian columnist, commentator and co-host of the podcast Safe Space.

Career

Based in Toronto, Ontario, Mochama studied communications at Carleton University and international marketing at Humber College.[1] She has worked as a columnist for Metronews and the Toronto Star, and has contributed to publications including Hazlitt, Chatelaine, BuzzFeed and Now. She has also appeared as a social and political commentator on the programs television programs such as the CBC's The Sunday Scrum and TVO's The Agenda. A profile of Mochama was included on Flares 2017 #HowIMadeIt list of talented, ambitious and driven Canadian women with interesting careers.[1]

Mochama's work often examines the experiences of racialized communites in Canada with a focus on race, gender and politics, which she acknowledged during a panel hosted by the Ryerson Journalism Research Centre is a reflection of how she moved through the world as a person of colour.[2] She immigrated to Canada with her family from Kenya as a child.[3]

Mochama began co-hosting the weekly podcast Safe Space with BuzzFeed writer Ishmael Daro in February 2017. She previously co-hosted the Canadaland podcast Commons with Supriya Dwivedi was the author of Canadaland's newsletter Not Sorry. She was also co-authored the 2017 book The Canadaland Guide to Canada.[4]

In 2018, Mochama and podcast producer Katie Jensen launched Vocal Fry Studios. Named after the vocal fry register commonly used to critique female hosts, the initiative is aimed at providing an affordable and inclusive space for new and underrepresented podcast creators through workshops, production assistance and studio rental.[5]

CBC Ombudsman review

On December 17, 2017 Mochama appearance as a panelist on the CBC's The Sunday Scrum hosted by John Ibbitson.[6][7] As part of a discussion regarding Lindsay Shepherd, a teaching assistant at Wilfrid Laurier University (WLU) who was in the midst of a free speech and academic freedom controversy, Mochama disagreed with Ibbitson's assertion that Shepherd was responsible for bringing public attention to issues surrounding academic freedom arguing that Shepherd was getting attention because of the colour of her skin:

{{quote|text=I have to disagree, I think that she is someone that exists, and I think that a lot of people responded to her for the same reasons they tend to respond to things, which is that she is a young, crying white girl, but there are a lots of moments in which the academic freedom conversation could have been had and that has been skipped over serially and I don’t think she’s the appropriate person to have launched this conversation because as it turns out she leans hard right on some of her choices.[8]}}

The comment, deemed by some viewers to be racist, prompted a review by the CBC News Ombudsman, Esther Enkin. In her final report, released on March 6, 2018, Enkin concluded that while viewers may not have liked what Mochama said, her comments did not amount to racism or a violation of established policy. Enkin explained:

{{quote|text=Ms. Mochama was not making general statements about all white people. She does not agree with Ms. Shepherd’s politics and dismissed her as someone who got attention by reacting emotionally. The point she was making is that because Ms. Shepherd was white, she got the attention. Her characterization of her may have been dismissive but that is a comment, it is not a condemnation of a race.[8]}}
