About STARS

University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
The Student Teachers Anti-Racism Society (STARS) promotes anti-racism education at the College of Education, University of Saskatchewan through the support of the College. We work collaboratively to understand, identify, and address individual and systemic racism and its interlocking forms of oppression based on gender, sexuality, ability, class, religion and other socially constructed categories. We believe that anti-racist and decolonizing education, when woven together, can create humanizing and emancipatory change for everyone.

Colorlines: A website dedicated to racial justice



Check out 'Celebrate Love' with Colorlines, journalism dedicated to racial justice, and take a look at Canadian Kids Use Flash Mob to Call for Love and Street Art on the Rez. Colorlines offers many anti-racist perspectives on global issues and popular culture that can be used in the classroom to spur critical discussions with youth about racism.

Colorlines has been building a home for journalism in service to racial justice since 1998. Our multiracial team of writers, producers and photographers cover stories from the perspective of community, rather than through the lens of power brokers. We consider racism a structural problem that demands structural, rather than solely person solutions. Like our publisher, the Applied Research Center, we're interested in systems, and that perspective informs our journalism.
