Five Years "Walking Together" on Orange Shirt Day

On Sept. 29, McGill’s Faculty of Education held its fifth annual event for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day: Skátne Entewathahíta – We Will Walk Together. 

The event, which is an initiative led by Indigenous students, Faculty members, and allies began with an introduction from Dennis C. Wendt, an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology and the We Will Walk Together Event Chair. Wendt opened with a land acknowledgment before explaining the theme of this year’s event: “Pathways from Awareness to Action: What Is Our Role?”
