Happy Graduation Week! #UNB #ClassOf2025

Today is the national Day of Awareness for Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQI+ people (MMIWG2S), also known as 'Red Dress Day'.
This ongoing crisis is a direct result of our countries long history of colonial violence.
Learn more about Red Dress Day here: www.mmiwg-ffada.ca

Every day, many of us put on a mask — not the kind you see, but the kind that hides anxiety, stress, sadness, or pain. This #MentalHealthWeek, the Canadian Mental Health Association invites us to remove the mask and work to create safer spaces for others to do the same.

Rosa Parks is a common figure brought up during Black History Month. However, Parks was also a passionate advocate for Black women who were survivors of sexual violence, working to help victims navigate a judicial system permeated by segregation and white supremacy.

In 1901, Mary Matilda (Tilly) Winslow became the first Black woman to attend the University of New Brunswick. In 1905, she graduated at the top of her class with her BA in Classics and was awarded the Montgomery-Campbell Prize for her academic achievements. #BlackHistory #UNB #BlackWomenInHistory
