Decolonizing Canada’s Education System
with Sheila Carr-Stewart
Webinar Date: November 10, 2021 / 3-4pm PT
In 1867, Canada’s federal government became responsible for the education of Indigenous peoples. The system set the stage for decades of broken promises and misguided experiments that are only now being rectified in the spirit of truth and reconciliation.
We’re excited to hear Sheila Carr-Stewart speak to this history and share a road map of the obstacles that need to be removed before the challenge of reconciliation can be met.
Knowing the Past, Facing the Future.
