There is tremendous diversity throughout racialized groups, with very different historical and current experiences of racism and colonialism.
A panel discussion June 23 will consider how to come together in allyship across racialized groups to bring to life voices, visions, and activism for change.
The online event is presented by the Windsor University Faculty Association’s Status of Women, Diversity, and Equity Action Committee and the UWindsor Office of Human Rights, Equity, and Accessibility in partnership with the Centre for Teaching and Learning.
It will run noon to 1 p.m. Wednesday, with welcoming remarks by Kaye Johnson, and Karen Pillon moderating the panellists:
