Title: Recognizing the effects of systemic racism to ensure greater cultural safety for Indigenous students

Author: Lefevre-Radelli, Léa

Abstract: In recent years, Quebec universities and CEGEPs have implemented a growing number of initiatives to provide Indigenous students with adapted services and an environment more respectful of their realities. These initiatives involve recognizing the cultural, linguistic and geographical realities of Indigenous students. However, Indigenous students are affected by institutionalized discrimination, an aspect of the education system rarely documented in Quebec. This article aims to provide avenues for understanding how systemic racism impacts Indigenous peoples in the university system—a key component for reflection on support measures for Indigenous students.
