(Samaj Weekly)- On April 5, I had a pleasure to attend the “Celebration of Dr. Sunera Thobani’s Induction to the Royal Society of Canada”.
Dr. Thobani is a remarkable scholar and activist who championed anti-racism and feminism. Congratulations Dr. Thobani on your success and best wishes as you undertake new responsibilities with the Royal Society of Canada.
With Dr. Thobani’s passion for inclusion and track record, community has even greater expectations of her. One such expectation is that Dr. Thobani will instigate further research on overcoming barriers for inclusion for students, staff, and scholars facing caste-based barriers and oppression.
It was also pleasure to see Dr. Sadhu Binning and hear his poem, ‘The Rebellious Sita”!
Best wishes Dr. Thobani.
