Navigating Academics as a Racialized Person
 
This series touches on the systemic struggles of succeeding academically as a racialized person. The sessions will be a safe space for students to speak about their own experiences, as peer facilitators help share strategies to overcome these challenges.  

Navigating Academics as a Racialized Person: Microaggressions
 
Microaggressions are indirect, often subtle forms of discrimination that have the power to accumulate into a much more challenging university experience. This session will discuss student's own experiences with microaggressions in the classroom and university, and talk about potential ways to handle such situations.
