On Wednesday, March 2nd at 6PM, our friends at Canadian Drug Policy Coalition (CDPC), in collaboration with Story Money Impact and many others, are presenting a panel on the drug poisoning epidemic in Canada. When you register for this event, your confirmation email includes a private link to participate in the Kímmapiiyipitssini: The Meaning of Empathy screening and discussion.
Please see the message below from CDPC:
"Contextualized in the historical and lived trauma of settler colonialism, Kímmapiiyipitssini: The Meaning of Empathy draws a connecting line between the impacts of colonialism on Blackfoot land and people and the ongoing public health crisis. The film asks the audience to have love and hope for those who are marginalized by addiction and racism.
This film is the winner of the Rogers Audience Award for Best Canadian Documentary at Hot Docs Festival and was selected as one of the best documentaries of 2021 by POV... magazine.
Join Dr. Esther Tailfeathers and other experts to discuss some of the themes explored in the film.
This screening is being jointly presented by Lethbridge City Indigenous Relations, Simon Fraser University, Keyano College, First People's House at the University of Alberta, Canadian Drug Policy Coalition, Moms Stop The Harm and the BC Association of Friendship Centres."
