Sandy Hudson will be a guest speaker at a  special event for our Royal Roads community to gather and celebrate Black History Month.

Hudson is the founder of the Black Lives Matters movement in Canada and a passionate activist for social and racial justice. Her popular podcast, Sandy & Nora Talk Politics, puts a witty perspective on emerging political thought. She also co-founded the Black Legal Action Centre, a non-profit legal aid clinic for low income Black Ontarians.

Hudson says her activism was sparked when she asked herself a simple question: “Why am I waiting for someone else to do this?”

Hosted by President Philip Steenkamp and facilitated by Associate Director Human Rights and EDI Alejandro Campos-Garcia.

This is an internal event open to RRU students, staff, faculty and associate faculty. Check your email for the invitation.
