Expanding the Truth Before Reconciliation
In this course, participants have the opportunity to engage in deepening their understanding of the historical and ongoing truths about settler colonialism, racism, and oppression in the country we now refer to as Canada. Through a truth telling timeline participants have the opportunity to reflect on unlearn designs as provocations that connect to current and historic realities of Indigenous People.
This course is designed in a way that encourages the participant to seek out further information and truth with respect to the provocations shared. It is based on the premise we must have the whole truth before we can appropriately move towards reconciliation.
