The Truth & Reconciliation Learning Circle is a virtual book club, presented by CapU Alumni Relations and Indigenous Education & Affairs.
The Learning Circle is designed to create an accessible, respectful space for CapU alumni and employees to deepen their understanding of Truth and Reconciliation.
This fall, we'll be reading Wînipêk by Niigaan Sinclair, a powerful collection of essays exploring Indigenous identity, treaty relationships and the ongoing impact of colonization in Canada.
Wherever you are in your personal journey, we invite you to join us! This is a space for reflection, respectful dialogue and shared learning.
“Reconciliation includes anyone with an open mind and an open heart who is willing to look into the future with a new way.”
