CTLT Indigenous Initiatives is excited to host Christine McRae, Executive Director of the web-based resource, Native-Land (www.native-land.ca) Native-Land brings about discussions of colonization, land rights, language, and Indigenous history tied to our personal histories. In this session we will learn about ways that Native-Land Digital encourages education and engagement on topics of Indigenous land—particularly, where you are located. Please join us to learn more about ways that you can discuss the rich and diverse cultures that have evolved from the land where you teach and live. We look forward to meeting you!
