As educators we have both a moral and professional obligation to share truths. We must do this in order to allow us to do the harder work of reconciliation. Part of addressing the injustices and inhumanities of the past is understanding and acting in the present.
"What we do now and in the years ahead matters a great deal. It matters not only for those who are with us today, but also the generations to come and those who are not with us here today whose memories we must honour." - Murray Sinclair
