AUDIENCE: K-12 EDUCATORS ARE ENCOURAGE TO ATTEND.

In this webinar, you will embark on a truth mission, digging into the how and why of stereotypes of Indigenous people in Canadian society. You will be exposed to many misconceptions about Indigenous people and learn how education and media have worked to shape contemporary ideas of "Indigeneity". We will unveil some of the most prevalent (and sometimes uncomfortable) myths about Indigenous people and focus on how to rebuild and repair relationships through ally work.

This learning opportunity is being offered through grant funding from Alberta Education.
