This presentation is the result of the hard work of third year Carleton undergraduate students who had the unique opportunity to work alongside OCSB high school students to create an artistic social justice project that addresses social oppression. There are three student written plays that will be performed. Audience members will participate as &#8220;spect-actors&#8221; who have the chance to intervene in the scenes and advocate for better social outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Characters in each play are fictional, and not based upon, and do not seek to represent, any real person(s). These characters were created for the purpose of creating discomfort within viewers in efforts to provoke self reflection. These characters do not in any way represent the students or faculty in Ottawa Catholic District School Board or at Carleton University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"trigger-warning\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trigger Warning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The plays contain subject matter intended for a mature audience. It may not be suitable for those 13 years or younger. Please be advised that some of the content may potentially be offensive, challenging, and\/or upsetting. There will be an opportunity for Question and Answer and discussion following the presentations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thursday, April 13, 2023<\/strong><br>\nTime: 5:00pm &#8211; 7:00pm<br>\nLocation: 3275 Mackenzie Building<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/Free-Accessibility-Icon-240x240.png\" alt=\"Icon indicating no costs involved\" class=\"wp-image-27984\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/Live-QA-Accessibility-Icon-240x240.png\" alt=\"Icon indicating Live Questions and Answers\" class=\"wp-image-27987\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/accessibility-icon-toolkit\/\">accessibility icon toolkit<\/a> was created in partnership and consultation with the Paul Menton Centre to provide indicators to allow students to navigate events more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"questions\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Please email us at <a href=\"mailto:umoja@carleton.ca\">umoja@carleton.ca<\/a>&nbsp;with any questions you may have.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button left\" href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/umoja-black-community-engagement-program\/umoja-community-events\/\">Register<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[115],"cu_event_audience":[45,46,47,48,53],"class_list":["post-29736","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_type-umoja","cu_event_audience-alumni","cu_event_audience-anyone","cu_event_audience-carleton-community","cu_event_audience-current-students","cu_event_audience-staff-faculty"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2023-04-13T17:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2023-04-13T19:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":"ME","cu_event_meeting_room":"3275","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":false,"cu_event_cost":"FREE","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"","cu_event_email":"umoja@carleton.ca","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/29736","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/29736\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29760,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/29736\/revisions\/29760"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29736"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=29736"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/seo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=29736"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
