Join us for this month’s Society & Impact Luncheon, featuring Dr. Ingrid Waldron. Dr. Waldron uses settler colonial theory to examine environmental racism in Canada. She highlights the symbolic and material ways in which the geographies of Indigenous and Black peoples have been characterized by erasure, domination, dehumanization, destruction, dispossession, exploitation, and genocide.
Dr. Waldron will offer a historical overview of cases of environmental racism in Canada and its impacts in Indigenous and Black communities, and outline how she has been addressing environmental racism over the last 12 years in partnership with Indigenous and Black communities and their allies.
