Despite changes to educational systems, Indigenous peoples still confront what Cote-Meek calls “colonial violence” when they enter sites such as post-secondary educational spaces. In this talk, Cote-Meek will draw on her own experiences, as well as the work that formed the basis of her book, Colonized Classrooms: Racism, trauma and resistance in post-secondary education<\/em>, to explore how Indigenous peoples negotiate colonized spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

杏吧原创 the Rheal Brant-Hall Memorial Lecture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This lecture is offered annually in honour of Rheal Brant-Hall, who worked with the School of Social Work\u2019s former off-campus program. A valued colleague, teacher and friend, Brant-Hall worked tirelessly and primarily with off-campus Indigenous students. Sadly, she passed away suddenly in 2000. In her honour, the School of Social Work planted a Flowering Crab Tree on campus and erected a plaque whose last line reminds of the colleague, friend, and \u201cGentle Spirit,\u201d that was Brant-Hall. The school is honoured to continue celebrating her life thorough this annual speakers’ series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
