Join Lunchable Learning on Monday, February  7th at noon PT.  We are pleased to welcome Nadia Mallay as our guest to help us kick off February and Black History Month.

Nadia Mallay, Postdoc., EdD is Canadian-born of Guyanese ancestry.  As the child of immigrants in a time when postsecondary education outside of Canada was dismissed, Nadia quickly adopted her parent’s high value of Canadian education as means to ‘success’.  Just as quickly, Nadia experienced the oppressive systemic racism present in Canadian institutions inclusive of educational ones.  After the gift of opportunity to travel and work around the world, Nadia returned to Canada with her passion to dismantle (or at least put a dent in) systemic racism intact.  She completed her doctorate in educational leadership in postsecondary institutions with a focus on institutional mechanisms and change management that can be leveraged for anti-racism work and is a postdoctoral fellow.

The Feb 7th program will be hosted by Leva Lee and BCcampus Learning Advisor Olaolu Adeleye.
