What's Our Goal?In these times when acts motivated by racism, Islamophobia and division have become everyday occurrences, there has never been a more opportune time to bring our Aboriginal and workers of color members together to strategically find ways to support our allies in helping us all tackle hate. We can all teach each other and learn from each other every single day. Through these connections throughout the union, we will stand in true solidarity where no one will be isolated, targeted or harmed.
