In keeping with our commitment to exploring Racism in Retail, please join us and take a class with the U of A. The course being offered is called Indigenous Canada and is being endorsed by one of our favourite people Dan Levy.

Read what Dan has to say: 

Dan Levy is going back to school and is inviting everyone to sit with him at lunch. Metaphorically, at least. The writer, actor and newly-nominated Emmy hopeful is helping to bring awareness to an online course currently available through the University of Alberta, which teaches the history of Indigenous people in the land colonially known as Canada and explores contemporary issues from an Indigenous perspective.

Sharing information about the course on his Instagram page on August 17, Levy announced that he will be starting the course this upcoming weekend and hosting weekly discussions with the professors every Sunday for the 12-week duration. The discussions and Q&A segments will be shared on Levy’s social media page and begin Sunday, August 23 at 3 p.m. ET.

“I thought, if I’m going to sign up and learn, maybe some other people would want to join me and we could do this as a group,” said Levy in his IG video. “If you’re anything like me, I was not a good student and I need group support. I thought this could be a really great way of doing that.” As of press time, almost 92,400 students had enrolled in the course"
