Un(PAC)k: Caring for ourselves and each other

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 est une série annuelle d'événements sur l'antiracisme, la justice des migrants et la solidarité indigène. Son objectif est de rassembler les communautés racialisées pour discuter de questions pertinentes pour leur vie, ainsi que de permettre à ceux qui n'appartiennent pas à ces communautés d'en apprendre davantage sur les luttes contre le racisme, le colonialisme et la violence aux frontières. Chaque année, le GRIP organise des discussions, des ateliers, des projections de films, des soirées de performance et des soirées de collecte de fonds pour les étudiants de McGill et les communautés montréalaises en général.
