Titre: Truth, honour, and care on orange shirt day
Auteur: Beauvais, Fran Kaherihshon
Résumé: "Kanienke’ha:ka counsellor Fran Kaherihshon Beauvais, former Coordinator
of the Indigenous Students’ Resource Center at John Abbott College, issues a
powerful call to action to CEGEP employees for the National Day for Truth and
Reconciliation Day or Orange Shirt Day (Sept 30). Fran addresses the ethical and
practical dimensions of designing trauma-informed public pedagogies for Orange
Shirt Day at CEGEPs, in tandem with provision of safe spaces for Indigenous
students and staff to reflect together. Written at the time of the devasting
discovery of the first 215 unmarked graves, Fran’s essay captures the rage, pain
and clarity of Indigenous calls to justice that can both sensitize settlers and guide
our efforts at respectful reconciliaction in the CEGEP context." -- provided by author
