Mutual Aid as Indigenous Practice: Taking Up Decolonial and Anti-Colonial Organizing

Wednesday March 31 2021, 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Talk Description:
What are Indigenous mutual aid frameworks? How can people navigate and get involved in community organizing in decolonial and anti-colonial ways in practice? How do our relationships shape important organizing conversations? This talk will engage these questions and issues around the roots of mutual aid and enduring Indigenous influences, cultural literacy, perils of co-optation and ways to advance collective good and honour Indigenous people, Turtle Island and all our relations.
