Thinking of women

Today is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. These days of remembrance are crucial to all of us as prospective/acting Social Studies teachers as they shed light on past events and open up opportunities for all of us to get engaged with our history. This particular date commemorates the massacre that occured at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal, when female students were rounded up and murdered as a result of their sex. I urge you all to take the time to reflect upon and become engaged with such events as they shed light on some of the many injustices of our time.
