The state is not neutral: Canada’s violent history of genocide and oppression

19/11/2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EST

Join us for our second course in the series Spring into Socialism: A Beginner’s Guide to Social Change.

The history of the settler Canadian state is the history of resource extraction on unceded lands from which Indigenous peoples have been dispossessed. The Canadian left has an extended tradition of producing counter-history in exploring and exposing the tension between Canada’s famous perceived image of multicultural tolerance and its exploitative imperialist practices rooted in capitalism. In this session, we will learn more about both the history of oppression in Canada and the rich traditions of resistance that have emerged in response to colonialist exploitation.

If you missed the first session, don’t worry, all are welcome.
