Hi everyone! My name is Belen Blizzard and I am Concordia's 2SLGBTQ+ Student Support Coordinator. My office will now be open for peer-support every Wednesday from 12 to 4pm. You're welcome to drop in at any time or email me to schedule an appointment at: 2SLGBTQIcoord@concordia.ca. <br><br>What you can expect: a space of non-judgment and active listening where your feelings and experiences will be honoured. I am here to support 2SLGBTQ+ students and hold space for topics ranging from identity, coming out, sexuality, experiences of homophobia and transphobia (and how they interest with race, disability, and more), and how they transpire in and out of the academic space. I am also equipped to redirect you to resources surrounding name and gender marker change, access to hormone and trans affirmative healthcare, and more. Over all, I aim to provide a space in which 2SLGBTQ+ students feel comfortable and safer in sharing their experiences and seeking support.

Cinéma du Musée and Concordia University present a special film series to celebrate 50 years of cinema. This series is part of Concordia’s 50th anniversary, and will be a monthly rendez-vous from September 2024 to May 2025 at Cinéma du Musée. Nine feature films were curated by Dr. Martin Lefebvre, Professor and Research Chair in Film Studies at Concordia’s Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema, and Jean-François Lamarche, Head of programming at Cinémas Beaubien, du Parc et du Musée. The selected films offer a portrait of cinema in 1974 and 1975 in Quebec, in North America and abroad. The mid-’70s were a key period in the evolution of film, as art-house cinema started occupying a greater place amongst the blockbusters of the era. The film cycle showcases films that were critically acclaimed upon release, as well as lesser-known, sometimes forgotten yet influential titles that deserve to be rediscovered by cinephiles. "What became the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema was born at a time when international film culture was extremely rich. Screening the great films that our students and professors discovered while they themselves participated in the development of a film culture in our city seems like the best way to celebrate our 50th anniversary." – Dr. Martin Lefebvre 1974-75 : Cinquante ans de cinéma à Concordia
The FOFA Gallery is pleased to present Fil conducteur, an exhibition of contemporary Indigenous beadwork by artists Carrie Allison, Katherine Boyer, Bev Koski, Jean Marshall, and Nico Williams.

This workshop will explore what it means to make “good trouble.” Making "good trouble", as described by Civil Rights Leader and Congressman John Lewis is doing “something out of the ordinary,” to make “a way out of no way.” As per Flint and Toledo (2021): "Troubling is about how we relate as we live and become together in the world." Together, we will use the concept of 'troubling' as a framework that notices and names injustices. We will also consider how we can create new ways of relating to one another in order to coexist in a good way. By the end of this session, participants will identify practical strategies for making "good trouble."

Let's face it, university studies can be totally different reality from what you may have experienced in high school or CEGEP.
In 2008, Critical Race Theorist William Smith coined the term Racial Battle Fatigue to describe the experiences of African American men. However, the term has since gained momentum and is now used to describe the snowballing effects of microaggressions and other negative racially charged experiences of people of colour. Smith defines Racial Battle Fatigue as the “cumulative result of a natural race-related stress response to distressing mental and emotional conditions. These conditions emerged from constantly facing racially dismissive, demeaning, insensitive and/or hostile racial environments and individuals” (Smith et al. 2011). In this workshop, we will explore the effects of Racial Battle Fatigue on Black students, faculty and staff in higher education, and consider how might work collectively to mitigate these experiences.
