Stolen Knowledge. Stolen Land

November 24, 2018 @ 2:30 pm - 6:30 pm

$40 – $100

From our organizers:

Join us in marking the National Day of Mourning for an afternoon where we ask & explore:
What is some of the history and legacy of taking in Western Herbalism?
What does it mean to be living and working with herbs on stolen land & often with stolen knowledge?
How can non-indigenous herbal learners, teachers and practitioners be allies in decolonization struggles?
How does being a part of colonial society shape our relationship to so many aspects of herbal learning and practice?
(Check out native-land.ca to interact with this map and learn whose land you live on/travel through)

Sliding Scale $40 – $100 for non-indigenous participants, No One Turned Away for Lack of Funds (NOTA)
$20 Deposit required to secure your spot; if you cannot afford the deposit please call us to reserve your spot. 50% of proceeds will go to supporting indigenous organizations & 50% to supporting Third Root & our POC facilitators
