“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,”
鈥淓quity is not a finite resource. Especially when we understand it as love.鈥�
鈥淭o be an antiracist is a radical choice in the face of this history, requiring a radical reorientation of our consciousness,鈥�
鈥淒iversity is being invited to the party; Inclusion is being asked to dance,鈥�
欧美精品视频 is devoted to continual learning about justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) and seeking to rectify systemic inequities and discrimination.
We acknowledge the historic and ongoing impact of Canada鈥檚 colonial history and our collective and individual role in perpetuating systemic discrimination such as:
Jedi stands for
JUSTICE
EQUITY
DIVERSITY
INCLUSION
These words may mean different things to different people, but JEDI is generally understood to be anti-racist, feminist, LGBTQIA+-allied, and religiously/culturally open.
Justice is aimed at ensuring that marginalized people who have suffered historical wrongs have those wrongs made right in present society. For instance, much of Indigenization is aimed at attaining justice for Indigenous peoples.
Equity can be captured in this picture.
Note that different heights/abilities are differently provided for. Equity is about meeting people where they are and doing your best to ensure their unique needs are met.
Diversity is defined as having representation of many different groups, whether they be religious, cultural, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic, and so on, at the table when decisions are being made.
Diversity is at the heart of 欧美精品视频鈥檚 Multi-Faith Room in the library at ACB. There, all of the diverse faiths of humankind are invited to express themselves in a safe space at our college.
Inclusion means that everyone is allowed to speak or participate in the activity in question. In the past, inclusion was not felt in Canadian society. There was a time when women were not included in the voting population, and Indigenous ways of knowing were not included in educational curricula.
