May 17 Sa'ke'j Youngblood Henderson As one of the strategists and members of the drafting team for the creation of UNDRIP, Sa'ke'j will share stories from the generation-long struggle that led ultimately to the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by the United nations General Assembly.

May 10 Paulette Regan Paulette draws on her work in 'Unsettling the Settler Within' and the TRC's reconciliation vision and framework to reflect on the problematic concept of settler-colonial allyship.
