Orange Shirt Day Community Event for Reflection and Action

Bring your lunch and join the Diversity Action Group and the RRUSA from 12:15 to 1:30 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 27 for a chance to debrief related learning over the month. 

We will hear from speakers within our RRU community, including members of our Heron Peoples Circle. We will also host an Orange Shirt group photo. This event will be held in person at the Dogwood Auditorium. Everyone is welcome and you are invited to wear orange if you wish.

This is one of three events hosted by the Diversity Action Group in September to support learning about the ongoing impact of colonialism in Canada and action that immigrants and descendants of immigrants can take to support the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action, especially Call 63 on education.
