Literary Intimacies and Reclamation of Body as Sovereignty and Wellness

Please join us for a special evening which invites Cree writer and academic Billy-Ray Belcourt and Cherokee professor, author, and cultural critic Daniel Heath Justice into conversation to discuss their shared experiences and reflections as it relates to the topic of Literary Intimacies and Reclamation of Body as Sovereignty and Wellness.

We invite you to learn firsthand from both speakers about the intentions of their writing, the meaning behind their works, and the innovative and powerful ways to support ethical encounters with Indigenous literatures.

In the spirit of promoting nutrition and wellness security on campus, we ask that you bring an item to contribute to our resource pantry that is located in the Indigenous Education Network at OISE. Items may include: non-perishable food, baby formula, personal care and hygiene products, etc.

Doors will open at 5:30pm at the Lawson Centre for Sustainability - Fourth Floor Pavilion (25 Devonshire Place, Toronto, ON). This gathering is an open community event and all are welcome to attend.
