Community Alliance for Support and Empowerment stand
in solidarity with Indigenous Nations across Turtle Island to participate in
Orange Shirt Day, and to recognize The National Day for Truth and
Reconciliation.
As an organization that seeks to empower marginalized
communities and disrupt systems of ongoing oppressions, Community Alliance for
Support and Empowerment is committed to advancing the rights of the Indigenous
peoples of this land and supporting the path to decolonization as allies by
reflecting on and speaking out against the systems, policies, and practices
that result in the injustices and violence of colonization and settler
colonialism.
September 30th
marks the importance of reflecting on our role as Settlers on land that
Indigenous peoples have inhabited since time immemorial, and engage in
decolonization process, centering the voices and perspectives of Indigenous
communities, today and everyday. We encourage all our partners, supporters,
clients and stakeholders to observe the National Day for Truth and
Reconciliation along with us and commit to engaging in the ongoing process of
reconciliation.
