Event Description

As Truth and Reconciliation Day approaches, South Okanagan Similkameen Immigrant and Community Services has decided to follow up by hosting a free workshop on intercultural competency, Indigenous rights and anti-racism.
On Oct. 9, interested people 16 and older are welcome to join "Reconcili-ACTION" at Penticton's Cleland Community Theatre from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
The workshop is free to attend and will be run by 3 Crows Productions, a group of Indigenous educational storytellers dedicated to increasing awareness of Indigenous culture and lived experience.
"The complex word 'Reconciliation' can evoke thoughts like “When are Indigenous Peoples going to decide that everything is reconciled and we can move on?'" reads a press release from the organizers.
"However, the phrase 'Reconcili-ACTION' directs the narrative to a more thoughtful approach of 'What can I personally do to help Indigenous Peoples feel that one day reconciliation can be a reality?'”
