Intersectional Infinity Summit 2022

We would like to acknowledge that many Indigenous Nations from across Turtle Island and across the world have longstanding relationships, both historic and modern, with the territories and lands upon which our advocacy and community leadership occur. We would like to acknowledge the traditional, ancestral, unceded territories of these Nations, as the struggle for Indigenous rights is deeply connected to all Human Rights work. When we recognize the systemic and social connections within our work, it is also essential that we refuse to historicize these struggles, because doing so ignores the impact of colonial oppression which persists today. In our advocacy efforts, we are committed to disrupting and dismantling the systems of oppression that have dispossessed Indigenous people of their lands and denied their rights to self-determination. This work is essential to human rights work across the world.

Alt Text: multi-coloured circles in background, overlaid with three pictures of people: on the left is a young Asian human with brindle spiked hair wearing a grey hoodie and shorts on. He is sitting behind a painting of trees. In the middle is a headshot of a Black woman with long black straight hair in a black blouse. She is standing in front of trees with leaves. On the right, there is a profile of a white human looking to the right with a multicoloured mohawk. They are wearing a green turtle neck sweater and a hooded winter coat with the hood down. Under these pictures, the words "Intersectional Infinity Summit, 2022" appear. Below the words are five logos: "Ask Me, I'm an AAC User", Aut.collab.org, Neurodivergent Infinity Network of Educators, Autistics Unmasked, and Communication First.
