Western University: Make Anti-Oppression Workshop Mandatory


Western University: Make Anti-Oppression Workshop Mandatory
The Issue
We are asking Western University to make an anti-oppression workshop mandatory for all students entering the University.
On May 31st, Western University tweeted: "Western stands with the Black community and with all those calling out anti-Black racism. Violence against Black, Indigenous and racialized peoples are pervasive – Canada is not immune. Resistance against racism is critical to move society – and our campus community – forward."
We're asking the administration to back their words. Use your platform to create a better future and educate ALL Western students on issues of oppression.
Please help us petition Western University to implement these changes and allocate resources to do so. We also encourage you to contact the Western University Administration to bring this to their attention.
