SUMMARY:Just Recovery Teach-In & Open Meeting
DESCRIPTION:As we continue to respond to the COVID-19 health crisis and prepare to rebuild, hundreds of organizations across Canada have endorsed the Principles of a Just Recovery to make sure governments know that we cannot and will not go back to the way things were–a world defined by government inaction in the face of ongoing, pre-existing crises of colonialism, human rights abuses, social inequity, ecological degradation, and climate change.\nThe Just Recovery asserts that we can build back better after the pandemic–that we can reorient our society to tackle the climate crisis, rising inequality, and systemic racism. This means taking action against systemic racism that disproportionately exposes Black, Indigenous, and racialized communities to COVID-19, the climate crisis, and state violence.\nJoin Leap UofT for a teach-in on the Principles for a Just Recovery and a discussion on what organizing for a just recovery looks like on campus. Space is limited, so be sure to register at the eventbrite link. Speakers will be announced as they are confirmed!\n*******\nSPEAKERS:\nDiana M.
