Drawing from examples of “for us by us” post-secondary education models, this public conversation aims to explore if and how Indigenous and Black-led initiatives can challenge Western institutions. Can we successfully make space for diverse curriculum, worldviews and people in our schools or are Indigenous and Black-serving institutions the solution to racism and curriculum representation?
