For November's monthly dinner, Dr. Waaseyaa’sin Christine Sy will share her experiences navigating intersectional discrimination in the BC School System. Drawing from her background as a parent and educator, she will also discuss how educators can better equip themselves to engage with and support racialized students in the classroom.
