Great to hang out and catch up with my bro @rtupper781 and prof. @DennisMcKenna4 on the last weekend of the summer!
Looking forward to presenting tomorrow at #R2R2022 #PsychedelicScience conference being co-hosted by @CAMHnews @CCSACanada and @MHCC_
@sd61schools - comparison of “positives” vs negatives of European #colonialism for #FirstNations peoples? (as if somehow the trade-off may have come out equal?). Why aren’t we teaching what it really was?
Horrified to see what’s being taught in my kid’s Gr. 3 classroom about #Indigenous peoples and #colonialism: “motivated...to improve their quality of life”? - and their “culture...still seen around BC today”? (what about the people themselves? and the impacts of colonialism?)
