The EDI office invites you to participate in the CCDI Webinar: Five Years and Forward: Black Lives Still Matter

Join us a s CCDI opens space for a powerful public webinar commemorating the murder of George Floyd and the global uprising that followed. Through storytelling, reflection, and shared learning, we’ll have the opportunity to explore how the legacy of 2020 continues to shape our collective responsibility and how we continue to move justice, equity, and inclusion forward. The collective response to George Floyd’s death uncovered entrenched patterns of anti-Black racism and racialized violence, amplifying the realities that too often go unspoken, both globally and in the Canadian context. This is a space to reckon with where we’ve been, and commit to where we’re going, five years later and five years forward.   

Learning Objectives:    

1. Explore how the murder of George Floyd sparked both global and Canadian responses, and how it exposed deeper issues of racial injustice, silence from institutions and widespread calls for change, which shaped how DEIA work is approached today.  
2. Build our ability to sit with and move through discomfort, understand it is a key part of anti-racism learning, and begin practicing accountability in real, everyday ways, at work, in community and within yourself.  
3. Transition from symbolic gestures to real change by using reflection, and community wisdom to guide your equity work in ways that are grounded, ongoing, and measurable.
