December CCS Friday – Microaggressions

On Friday, Dec 12, 2025 the Centre for Christian Studies hosted an online discussion of with special guest Samantha Miller from the United Church of Canada’s Indigenous and Racialized Youth Scholars program. Samantha is from Six Nations territory and works in Hamilton (as well as participating in international conferences like the World Council of Churches and the COP30 climate change conference). She is doing research into microaggressions – those small, subtle, often unconscious acts of discrimination and othering that have a cumulative impact on a person’s identity, sense of belonging in community, and relationship to the land.

CCS Fridays: Online conversations to help us all to respond faithfully to emerging issues in local contexts.  These workshops are open to anyone who might be interested. Each session will be on a Friday from 12:00 to 1:00 CT and in the form of a Zoom workshop.  There will be a presentation that will be recorded for future viewing, plus opportunities to engage with the ideas in small groups.
