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 a speaker who is South Asian. Dr. Satwinder Kaur Bains is the Director of the South Asian Studies Institute at the University of the Fraser Valley and is an Associate Professor in Social Cultural Media Studies, College of  Arts. She has many years of professional work in community development and has worked with many organizations on organizational change. 

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.
