It's been a week since @cityoftoronto kicked off its anti-East Asian #racism campaign on Nov. 1st! This Toronto For All initiative aims to educate & generate dialogue among #Toronto residents. Pls share/repost!
#antiasianracism – at Toronto, Ontario
*Special notice*: @lwta_program student projects are featured on the City of Toronto's website! You can check it out at: toronto.ca/TorontoForAll – at Toronto, Ontario
.@YRDSB recently published this #antiAsianracism report to highlight experiences of racism among Asian students & educators in #YorkRegion. It's critical that we acknowledge their accounts & act immediately to address anti-Asian racism. @yrdsbinclusion

The report underlines the following themes: 1) need for #Asian representation in the curriculum; 2) low sense of belonging; 3) lack of Asian staff representation; & 4) colonial practices & procedures.

Visit the @VarleyGallery to check out the Long Time No See exhibition! Some of our very own students are featured in it but these photos *don't* do it justice so make a trip to @UnionvilleInfo to enjoy this FREE exhibition in person!
