Culture Shock presents:
Un(PAC)k: Caring for ourselves and each other
Nov. 22nd, 6:30-8:00 PM
Location: 2100 rue Guy, #205
Un(PAC)k is a series of discussion groups aimed to create space for BIPOC to share personal experiences and thoughts regarding current events and selected topics.
For this un(PAC)k, we will discuss making collective movement in social change sustainable and accessible. Often, social change can feel daunting, difficult, and dull. Through introducing and opening up a conversation about the Social Change Ecosystem Map by Deepa Lyer, and Pleasure Activism by Adrienne Maree Brown, we hope that individuals can recognize the space they can fill within social change with ease, and find that Joy can be a great, if not essential part of the movement! Discussion will last for about 1.5 hours.
The Pan-Asian Collective aims to promote meaningful engagement in Asian history and culture in Tiohtiá:ke, create a space that recognizes the diversity of Asian experiences, and empower the Asian community to build a network of support, learning, and solidarity.
Culture Shock is an annual event series on anti-racism, migrant justice, and Indigenous solidarity. It seeks to bring together racialized communities to discuss issues relevant to their lives, as well as to allow those who do not belong to these communities to learn more about struggles against racism, colonialism and border violence. Every year, QPIRG brings panels, workshops, film screenings, performance nights and fundraiser parties to McGill students and broader Montreal communities.
