Context Power and Coloniality

Contexts are always shaped by numerous historical and social forces, which we come to embody in ways related to our particular social locations. In the first half of this course, we learn how to do spiritual/vocational reflection on the self-in-context. In the second half of the course, we nurture these capacities by using them in relation to one context in which we all share: colonial Canada in the wake of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). Exploring how to be vocationally responsible in light of this context, we will develop analytic skills transferable to multiple other contexts too.
