Originating in the U.S., Scholar Strike Canada is a nationwide coordination of labour action, teach-in opportunities, and social justice advocacy with a specific focus on anti-indigenous, colonial violence. Keeping in solidarity, UWinnipeg Librarians and Archivists have collaborated on a collection of resources on systemic racism and the fight for equality at home. Below is a list of the resources available:
