As part of Black History Month, the DoS Student Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity Coordinator and the University of Alberta Students’ Union are organizing a panel discussion on racial trauma which will be followed by roundtable discussions. The panel will include faculty, student, and staff from the U of A community.

Please note that although this event is tackling a potentially emotionally triggering topic, this event is not a therapeutic space, it is intended as a conversation and not to retraumatize participants.
