Indigenization

Haven’t decided what to do with your LWSA?

October 24, 2024 by Lynelle Yutani Leave a Comment

The reminder came in the lead-up to Truth and Reconciliation Day and got me to thinking about the … [Read more...] about Haven’t decided what to do with your LWSA?

Help Needed for Orange Shirt Day!

September 9, 2024 by Michael Stewart Leave a Comment

Orange Shirt Day

The Department of English's Indigenization Working Group is asking for volunteers to help them as they assist in organizing Camosun's Orange Shirt Day events. Days like the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation are emotionally burdensome days for our Indigenous colleagues and students, so it is important for non-Indigenous allies to take on some of the practical labour when … [Read more...] about Help Needed for Orange Shirt Day!

Orange Shirt Day

(by Michael Stewart) Hi There Members! We’ve been looking for ways that the CCFA can improve some of its work toward reconciliation and be good neighbours and allies for our Indigenous colleagues.

Sept 30 is a very … [Read more...] about Volunteer help sought for Sept 30 Camosun Orange Shirt Day Events

Honouring Our Commitments to Reconciliation on National Indigenous Persons Day

June 21, 2022 by Lynelle Yutani Leave a Comment

Na'tsa'maht - Working Together as One: Artist Butch Dick

It is so important to uphold and promote good works that others do. Amplifying and sharing with respect and gratitude isn't always appreciated in our colonialized educational system. So, today rather than creating my own blog post on Indigenous Persons Day, I am sharing a wonderful Newsletter from the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council that I received through a sign-up … [Read more...] about Honouring Our Commitments to Reconciliation on National Indigenous Persons Day

My Personal Indigenization Statement – Lynelle Yutani

May 4, 2022 by Lynelle Yutani 1 Comment

Cycle of Knowledge House Post

Indigenization and Decolonization are processes, not just goals. I choose the path of reconciliation and cross-cultural healing with great intention.  I work for it (inside myself) and try to model it for others.  I intentionally check my privilege and attempt to be as generous (in heart as well as in other ways) as possible. I try to walk with respect for my … [Read more...] about My Personal Indigenization Statement – Lynelle Yutani
