For people of colour, does it bother you the way government in Canada is setting up funding for businesses and non-profits?
Every funding application lately for our non-profit is denied unless we have someone indigenous on the board.
Now, I may be speaking from a place of ignorance, but it feels wrong to me and I’m sure being on the other side feels equally as gross.
We have to actively search for a “token” person to access any help for charitable causes. If there’s a native person who wants to help, all aboard!…but we have to actively seek someone out solely because of the color of their skin….feels wrong as hell.
