Act of vandalism at Four Directions Indigenous Student Centre

I was deeply disturbed to learn of the act of vandalism at Four Directions Indigenous Student Centre. It disappoints and saddens me to hear of yet more acts of hatred and violence directed towards Indigenous and LGBTQ2S members of our community. The flags which were cut up and destroyed, were hung in response to the Chown Hall incident that took place last fall, in support of not only the students impacted by the incident but also in support of the broader Indigenous and LGBT2S+ community here at Queen’s.

Statement on acts of hate on our campus

It has been a difficult year for Indigenous, racialized, and LGBTQ2S+ members of the Queen’s community. As Kanyen’kéhaka (Mohawk) people in leadership positions at Queen’s, we want to share our reflections and our hope for moving forward on a better path. We each hold different roles and responsibilities within the university, but we approach our work with the shared values and experiences of living in, and coming from, Tyendinaga, and with a connection to our Haudenosaunee ancestry.
