- **Event Description**: A healing dialogue to honour Mr. Afolabi Stephen OpasoAbout this EventOn December 31st, 2023, a Nigerian international student named Afolabi Stephen Opaso was fatally shot and killed by the Winnipeg Police while experiencing a mental health crisis. This tragedy left fear, frustration, disappointment, and anger in the hearts of Black students on campus. These feelings have only been exacerbated by a report released in August that that has stated that the officer responsible for shooting Ziggy will not face any institutional sanction. To honour the legacy of our dear and beloved brother, it is necessary to once again connect as a community to facilitate a healing dialogue that healthily unpacks the emotions we have about this catastrophe. An environment where Black students and the broader University of Manitoba and Winnipeg community can unapologetically share perspectives regarding culturally competent support systems, emotional neglect, structural accountability, and the peculiar brand of systematic racism that results in Black men and boys disproportionately dying at the hands of police is desperately needed to confront the pain and anguish of this situation.Since Afolabi Stephen Opaso’s passing, the Barbershop Talk has dedicated events on an annual basis to discuss the multidimensional factors that led to his death. In partnership with the Nigerian Student Association, the Barbershop Talk Series will continue this tradition and use its platform to provide a safe space that enables all those who have a vested interest in the wellbeing of Black men and boys to participate in a non-judgemental conversation that fosters empathic consideration, unconditional acceptance and holistic support.

We recognize that the experiences of ACB and other racialized minorities are unique due to the potential micro-aggression that they may encounter throughout their academic and professional experiences. Advocating for an inclusive campus is ACMP’s mission while supporting the success of racialized students.Through this mentorship program, participants will be able to: 1) Be able to understand financial literacy 2) Build confidence 3) Enhance social network 4) Be aware of their current behaviours that might make others feel uncomfortable, while being open to change 5) Understand how to access Carleton’s academic resources as a way to better their student experience."
