In recognition of National Truth and Reconciliation Day, September 30, 2021, Pulse Lab members are hopeful that our community will take the opportunity to join in recognitions and trainings offered by the indigenous community regarding the history and impact of residential schools, treaty obligations, and other crucial issues, in Ontario and across Turtle Island.
Our colleagues at the McMaster Indigenous Studies Program have recommended resources offered by the Woodland Cultural Center, including: a link to the 94 Calls To Action provided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, other educational resources, opportunities to make donations (including to the Save the Evidence campaign) and a virtual tour of the Mohawk Institute: https://woodlandculturalcentre.ca/every-child-matters/
Virtual tour scheduled on September 29th at 11:30, you can register here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/virtual-tour-of-the-mush-hole-aka-mohawk-institute-residential-school-tickets-171163212777
Other resources are available at the TRC website: https://nctr.ca/about/history-of-the-trc/trc-website/.
We look forward to learning, recognizing, and reflecting on National Truth and Reconciliation Day.
