The Race and Antiracism Network (RAN) is a UFV group committing to raising the profile of race-related issues at UFV and beyond; addressing issues of racism, and developing theoretical and practical strategies and tools of anti-racism. CIVL Radio is currently working with RAN, and we have the following objectives:

• Raising awareness about racism and race-related (gender, sexuality, religious, class, dis/ability) issues at UFV, the Fraser Valley, and society at large;

• Organizing events for members of UFV related to race and anti-racism;

• Bringing together individuals and communities at UFV and beyond working on anti-racism, decolonization, and anti-colonial projects;

• Providing a space for people of colour, Indigenous peoples and allies to work on issues of related to race and acolonial politics;

• Resources pending, responding to local, regional, national, and international events and issues relevant to RAN;

• Facilitating dialogues and discussions within UFV among staff, faculty, administrators and students;

• Advocating for changes within UFV that are consistent with the above objectives.

We have monthly meetings and are open to students, faculty, and staff.

The next meeting will be on Wednesday, November 27, 3:30 – 5:00pm – Virtual – Link here
