FIFSWAA Series: Addressing Historical Inequities: The Role of Allies in Advancing Collective Change
March 2 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Location: Online via Zoom
Presented by the FIFSW Alumni Association
This session is open to all allies of the Black community
This interactive session invites Allies into a purposeful exploration of their role in advancing equity and belonging for people of African descent. Building on an understanding of the structural and lived barriers faced by African Canadians, this workshop moves beyond intention to impact. Participants will reflect on power, privilege, and accountability, examine how systems are sustained or disrupted through everyday actions, and learn how to show up with humility, courage, and consistency.
