dc.description.abstract | It is no secret that the Indigenous community in Winnipeg has faced many challenges. In analyzing this social issue, we have the option of studying the victims of racism and attempting to understand their suffering. However, this method of inquiry only provides us with a list of symptoms; it does not provide us with insight on how to resolve the root causes of racism. The purpose of this study is to better understand the relationship between Settler Canadians and racism in Winnipeg. If we can determine the barriers that prevent Settler Canadians from acting out against racism, we can potentially identify avenues through which those settlers can become allies of the oppressed. Through the use of personal interviews with University of Manitoba students, this researcher has produced knowledge concerning racism, settler identity, and the potential for social change in Winnipeg. | en_US |
