Make this October 4 a movement for social change.<\/p>\n
October 4 is a day where we honour the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG). The violence experienced by Indigenous women and girls in Canada is a national tragedy. We must take the time to give thanks to the families who are our reason for demanding continued action.<\/p>\n
UFV Senior Advisor on Indigenous Affairs (Shirley.hardman@ufv.ca<\/a>) and the Race and Antiracism Network (RAN: awneet.sivia@ufv.ca<\/a>; vandy.britton@ufv.ca<\/a>; adrienne.chan@ufv.ca<\/a> ) are sponsoring the Heart Project.\u00a0 Two hundred hearts will be circulated from various locations on campus.\u00a0 You can use a heart to write a message to share your thoughts and send a message of remembrance. These will be posted on the Bulletin Board in Building D by the entrance to Building B.<\/p>\n We lift our hands to all those who work to support Social Change.\u00a0 Ey Si:yam, Hoych\u2019ka Si:yam.\u00a0 Thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Make this October 4 a movement for social change.
