The last person to be imprisoned for homosexuality in Canada was Everett George Klippert. This controversial decision leads directly to the Criminal Law Amendment Act (Bill C-150). It is an omnibus bill that, among other things, decriminalizes gay sex. However, the struggle continued.
In America, on June 28, 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a popular Greenwich Village bar catering to LGBTQ+ customers. Decades of escalating, state-sanctioned harassment led officers to expect everyone to leave quietly as usual. But if that had happened, it wouldn’t have made history.
Decades of oppression of the LGBTQ+ community, cultural shifts in the 1960s, and good troublemaking became a catalyst for change and a symbol for LGBTQ+ rights that evolved into today’s Pride festivals and marches. This course explores the key events and personalities in North America that ultimately shaped a global movement.

You’ve probably heard the word “diversity” pretty frequently both in and out of the workplace, but are you confident you understand what it means and how it might impact your life?
Diversity—along with the complementary concepts of equity, and inclusion—impact your wellbeing, regardless of your background. Having a firm grasp on these terms is essential not only for a healthy workplace, but ultimately a healthier way of living.
This course will introduce you to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). By the time you’ve finished this course, you’ll be better equipped to understand the importance of DEI and take action to support diversity initiatives in the workplace.
Topics covered in this introductory course include how we’re socialized in the world, how biases form, and how these factors affect how we think and act—and feed into various systems of oppression. By the end of this course, you will:
1. Have a basic understanding of key DEI concepts.
2. Recognize how your specific background fits into the society you live in.
3. Know how to contribute to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.
Understanding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is essential to creating a healthier community. But once you’ve grasped the conceptual elements of DEI, how do you put them into practice? And how can you apply your knowledge to your unique community?
In this course, you’ll learn how the stories we tell ourselves impact our well-being. You’ll discover the power of the narratives we tell as individuals, within social groups, and through institutions, and you’ll explore ways to counter these narratives through specific examples and exercises. By the end of this course, you will know how to:
1. Create space for diverse perspectives and critique current power structures.
2. Navigate the ambiguity and complexity that come with multiple perspectives.
3. Take action to promote equity and justice.
When it comes to innovation, creativity, and problem-solving, research consistently shows that diverse workforces perform better. But, for diversity to work, every employee must feel included. They need to have a seat at the table and know that they and their opinions matter.
So, how do you ensure that all employees—regardless of who they are—feel like they can be their true selves at work? In this course, we’ll first define what’s meant by diversity, inclusion, and belonging. You’ll then learn how to attract and retain diverse talent through belonging moments, allyship, and ongoing quantification.
