TOP REVIEWS FROM ABORIGINAL WORLDVIEWS AND EDUCATION
I found this course informative and enlightening as the truth was shared by the instructor and Indiginous guests. This has been a valuable experience to add to my personal reconcilliation journey.
I really appreciated when the Teacher twice quoted the Sioux Lookout Anti Racism Committee. Being from Sioux Lookout we don't get much recognition and it perked me right up.
I loved all the learnings and teachings in this course! I recommend it. It is really a 5-star course, but I am giving it 4 because of the missing links. Otherwise a great course, I am happy I took it!
Great content! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Very informative and I learned a lot!
Suggestion might be to add new content since it is now 2021. Many things have happened between 2013-2021.
