SYNOPSIS
Being an ally is not a static identity, but a privileged role one takes on when uplifting marginalized communities. Where there is prejudice, allies offer their position and voice to shut down acts of racism and increase solidarity.
Led by Marissa McIntyre of Len Pierre Consulting this anti-racism training session explores allyship in the context of Indigenous Peoples, while identifying strategies for discussing racism and cultural safety in non-combative ways with your team.
