The Political Action Committee of CUPE 3906 warmly invites you to our film screening and open house, Thursday September 29th in the Wentworth Lounge (beside the Phoenix).

As part of thinking about the struggles around us and the oppressions we are often complicit in, we’ll be showing a screening of Sewatokwa´tshera´t: The Dish with one Spoon (2008).  This documentary by Dr. Dawn Martin Hill (Mohawk, Wolf Clan, academic director of the indigenous studies programme at McMaster) features indigenous voices discussing colonialism, land struggles, and the ongoing reclamation at Kanonhstaton/Caledonia begun in 2006.  Building from the insights of these voices, we also hope this can be an opportunity to stimulate discussion about our colonial inheritances and think about just ways of moving forward together.

Door open at 6pm, film screening at 7pm.
Coffee, tea and light refreshments provided.  We can also provide bus tickets for those coming from off campus.

All welcome!
