In this 3-hour session we will explore how those in power have created, maintained, perpetuated, and expanded discourses of fear around Black, Indigenous, and Muslims peoples. We will discuss how by painting these populations as security threats, nationally, domestically, and/or internationally, the Global North has been able to exploit resources of and maintain power over these populations. We will also explore how these discourses have impacted Black, Indigenous, and Muslims peoples, both in Canada and elsewhere, interpersonally and systemically.
