Not white enough for some people

Growing in a whitriarcal academic environment.  Non mixed discussion night between women and non-binary racialized people.
Organized by racialized Uqamians in action!

UQAM: Hyper leftist university in Montreal.  Safe space&all.

Blantriarchal (sic)  :hmm:  :bleeding: or  :lol:

Not white enough, true.
Not english enough, also true.
Not french enough, also true.
Not left enough, true.
Not right enough, again true.
I think you're very close on piercing the veil on Quebec's distinctiveness ;)

This nation's wounds will never heal until each and every veteran from Operation Urgent Fury finally comes home.
