Hear from a group of UBC faculty as they share real-world examples of their commitment to anti-racist pedagogy, disability justic, queer pedagogy, drag, and other critical approaches in teaching and learning. Through conversation and opportunities for reflection, participants will consider how these insights might inform their own teaching—and what it takes to move from good intentions to meaningful action.
