Le Club d'apprentissage ARAO réunit notre équipe pour explorer des thèmes essentiels liés à l'anti-racisme et à l'anti-oppression. Chaque mois, chacun d’entre nous découvre un balado, un documentaire, une vidéo ou un livre, puis nous nous réunissons pour une discussion guidée. Ensemble, nous réfléchissons aux principaux enseignements à l’aide de questions préparées, tout en se demandant comment intégrer ces apprentissages aux politiques ARAO d’Imagine Canada. Dans cet article, nous partageons cinq œuvres qui ont suscité des discussions particulièrement enrichissantes au cours de la dernière année, ainsi que quelques questions qui ont orienté nos échanges. Ces ressources nous aident à approfondir notre compréhension de l'anti-racisme et de l'anti-oppression, et nous vous invitons à les découvrir également. Lire l’article :
