Branch - City Centre

City Centre Combined 136 & 137

Join the Coquitlam Public Library in this three-part speaker series with people from diverse backgrounds sharing their stories.

This series brings awareness of people who are from diverse groups and how everyone's story is different.

This session includes the speaker Valerie Jerome who is an African-Canadian former Olympian, educator and political activist about her experiences growing up in BC.

A brave space:

  • is a supportive place where participants feel comfortable learning, sharing honestly and equally, and growing individually and together.
  • is inclusive of all races, sexes, genders, abilities, immigration statuses, languages, and lived experiences.
  • can help encourage dialogue, especially about challenging topics like anti-racism.

There will be time for questions from the audience.

Registration is recommended for each session, but drop-ins are welcome. 

Light refreshments will be served.

Other events in this speaker series include:
