Presenters will share experience and insight on how all we can all play a role in the ongoing work of truth, reconciliation and healing to build a more respectful and just society for all.
“Residential School Denialism and How to Counteract it” will be the focus of the fifth presentation in the “Reconciliation Through Education” series. The series will be held on Thursday, Sept. 19 and will feature Dr. Sean Carleton, professor of Indigenous studies at the University of Manitoba.
