Safe Space for White Questions - June Edition
June 30, 2021, 12:30 PM
This is a series of free, public, monthly drop-in sessions that are open to all but aimed at people who identify as white and are interested in working toward collective liberation. Come ask the questions about race, racism, social change, and social justice you always wonder about but feel nervous asking. You won't offend us (unless you're trying to—please don't do that!).
The event will be moderated by Alex Khasnabish (Mount Saint Vincent University) and Ajay Parasram (Dalhousie University).
This event will be live-streamed via Fernwood Publishing's YouTube channel. Watch live (and find recordings of past editions) HERE.
