Acting Against Racism: Strategies for Moving Forward
North Shore Multicultural Society presents Acting Against Racism: Strategies for Moving Forward
Date & Time: September 14, 2017, 7pm-9pm
Location: Kay Meek Centre, 1700 Mathers Avenue, West Vancouver
Have recent national and international events made you feel uncertain or helpless about what you can do to prevent racist or discriminatory behaviour on the North Shore?
Racism is not new and neither is Islamophobia, but police-reported hate crimes have recently increased in Canada, leaving many of us wondering how we can avoid being victims or bystanders.
NSMS will be joined by keynote speakers: Sunera Thobani and Handel Kashope Wright
A panel discussion will be moderated by Margaret Gallagher.
Join NSMS and continue the momentum of resiliency and hope as active participants who see building an inclusive North Shore as a top priority.
The event is free but RSVP is required: RSVP online at http://actingagainstracism.brownpapertickets.com or call 604-973-0457
