Identifier: fmdwzcis8The last person to be imprisoned for homosexuality in Canada was Everett George Klippert. This controversial decision leads directly to the Criminal Law Amendment Act (Bill C-150). It is an omnibus bill that, among other things, decriminalizes gay sex. However, the struggle continued.
In America, on June 28, 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a popular Greenwich Village bar catering to LGBTQ+ customers. Decades of escalating, state-sanctioned harassment led officers to expect everyone to leave quietly as usual. But if that had happened, it wouldn’t have made history.
Decades of oppression of the LGBTQ+ community, cultural shifts in the 1960s, and good troublemaking became a catalyst for change and a symbol for LGBTQ+ rights that evolved into today’s Pride festivals and marches. This course explores the key events and personalities in North America that ultimately shaped a global movement.

Beginning in 1883, residential schools were in existence for well over 100 years, meaning that many successive generations of children from the same communities and families endured the experience of them. All three nations of children - First Nations, Inuit and Métis - attended residential schools; however, the experiences of each nation differed slightly. This course discusses the historical impact of the residential schools, which in turn led to the development of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC). The course also provides an overview of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and how it is connected to the TRC Calls to Action.
