FREE WEBINAR
Black Youth from the Diaspora: Racism, Identity, and Transnational Belonging
📅 October 29, 2025 | 1:00PM – 3:00PM (EDT)
We’re excited to host Dr. Mary Goitom and Dr. Ahmed Ali Ilmi for a conversation on how Black youth from the diaspora in Canada navigate anti-Black racism, identity, and belonging across local and transnational contexts.
In this free webinar, they’ll share their research findings on how youth from the diaspora exercise agency, resilience, and world-building in the face of systemic barriers, and raise important questions on how we can create supportive spaces that centre Black youth, validate hybrid cultural identities, and recognize transnational connections as sources of strength.
