🎤 Displacement by Design: Challenging Discrimination Within Housing Systems
📅 August 14th | 🕡 6:30–8:30 PM
📍 Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library (Auditorium, 824 1st Ave W, Owen Sound)
Join us for the first event in our new Sound Ideas: A Community Education Series—a monthly opportunity to deepen our understanding, spark conversation, and move toward collective action 💬💙
Displacement by Design is a free, public workshop exploring how discrimination shows up in housing systems—and what we can do to build more inclusive, equitable communities. Together, we’ll unpack the impact of racism, poverty, colonialism, and queer/transphobia on housing access and safety.
✨ Open to all: residents, tenants, advocates, and anyone curious about creating change
🎙️ Presented by Rachel Paterson (she/they)—Building Gender Diverse Communities Program Coordinator at M’Wikwedong
💡 Expect stories, lived experience, resource sharing, and a space to reflect and grow, together.
No RSVP is required, but clicking “Going” helps us prepare—thank you!
