The Box Team

🌱 We’re ready to start again! 🌱 We’re excited to re-launch again in our new format: a paid subscription service with flexible pricing options for anyone in Canada interested in being anti-racist. 4 boxes delivered over a year to guide your learning. Are you ready to join us?

Received my box from @youneedthisbox today 💙 Nakummek for the work that you are doing, I look forward to working through the resources you’ve provided.

On September 30, we come together to remember and honour the Indigenous children who experienced the trauma of residential schools. It is also an opportunity to discuss the legacy of residential schools in the spirit of reconciliation. #orangeshirtday

@jonhamlin Thanks for your support!

Wow, very impressed with this free anti-racism toolkit from @youneedthisbox - Land acknowledgement front and center - this could be a model for all Canadian online retailers to follow #sd61learn youneedthisbox.ca

@LisaPrudenPants @YEGShiftLab Wishing you well as you embark on this important journey! 💛

@All_inChange Yes, our prototype was also informed by research and interviews with diverse individuals & integrated an intersectional approach. Our project team includes people with various backgrounds, and intersecting identities (incl. BIPOC). See link for details: bit.ly/2ChQCFd

@youneedthisbox were BIPOC consulted in the box creation?

Big week for important deliveries. Blown away by #Yeg anti racism box. 🙌🙌 And the kindness of personal delivery by @glassbookshop. Feeling blessed to live in #Yeg. @theECF @YEGShiftLab

@miss_jazzyb @theECF @YEGShiftLab That's awesome! Wishing you well as you embark on this journey.

@Argenplath @YEGShiftLab Thanks for spreading the word about our prototype & for not sharing the details of the learning activities. We want to ensure each box recipient has the opportunity to unbox and experience the box for themselves. 💛 Wishing you well as you embark on this journey.

Picked up my anti-racism box from @YEGShiftLab today. I anticipate a lot of learning and reflecting as I go through the box contents (not sharing on social as per box requests) and that some of it will def be challenging.
