On behalf of the Canadian Race Relations Foundation (CRRF), MCoS would like to invite you to the upcoming webinar.

On Wednesday, November 3, 2021 (6 to 7:30 p.m. MST; 5 to 6:30 p.m. PST; 7 to 8:30 p.m. CST; 8 to 9:30 p.m. EST) CRRF will be hosting a dialogue in partnership with MacEwan University on Understanding Hate:  Community Responses to Hate.

Building empathy, offering insight and providing a platform for open dialogue, the Understanding Hate series explores the topic of hate and its impact on diversity and inclusion. This annual event typically takes place in the Fall semester.

This year, the focus is on Community Responses to Hate. The past year and a half has highlighted the continued need for communities across Canada to respond to hate. This virtual panel will bring together a collection of speakers from across Canada who have been actively engaged in community responses to counter hate, bias and discrimination.
