a coalition of individuals, grassroots groups, and community organizations dedicated to grounding our work towards liberation in the principles of decolonization, anti-oppression and intersectionality. our interest is in building capacity -- on individual, organizational, and institutional levels -- in order to fully utilize privilege and power in the best interest of all marginalized groups and mother earth to reduce and dismantle hierarchies and systems of oppression.
And the beginning of our tour begins! Our first workshop kicks off today at the CommunityWise Resource Centre in Calgary. (Click the photo for the event page!)
