Facilitator: Anna Nieminen

The Stories of Decolonization project is a multi-film documentary series about how colonization has impacted people living in Canada and ways we can all work toward decolonization.

In this community call, we’ll be watching the first film of the series: Land Dispossession and Settlement (27 minutes). The film shares stories of both Indigenous peoples who have longstanding ancestral connections to lands across the nation, and settlers who reflect on their place in the colonial narrative.

After the screening, our facilitator Anna Nieminen will host a discussion about what we took away from the film and gather ideas on how to take action to practice decolonization and support reconciliation.
