MacEwan University is proud to host Senator Wanda Thomas Bernard to kick off our Black History Month 2021 virtual series.

Senator Bernard will engage us in celebrating, mourning and providing hope in building a more inclusive Canadian society. Senator Bernard’s story, wisdom, knowledge and political engagement around Canadian’s of African descent; her advocacy work for the Black Social Workers’ Association in Canada; her assessment of the impact of COVID-19 for Canadian African Descent communities; and her work connected to confronting anti-Black Racism will be a suitable broad source for sharing, learning and acting for MacEwan University and our Black History Month partners to actively listen, reflect and learn with one another.

It also creates a space to reflect on the realities Black Canadians continue to face regarding racism and discrimination.
