Moderated by Faizal Khamisa, this debate will include four talented young debaters to help us reflect on issues related to equity and justice, and reflect on the true nature of America and Canada.

As defined by the Global Centre for Pluralism, pluralism is an ethic of respect for diversity. Diversity in society is a fact, but how societies respond to diversity is a choice. Pluralism results from the daily decisions taken by a community to actively engage across differences and embrace difference as a strength. Join this esteemed group of panelists as they explore, through lived experiences and discussion:

• How pluralism helps us engage with diversity
• How the arts help us transform academic perceptions of pluralism into action
• How we can practically engage in pluralism as individuals
• The program will reinforce unity through a sense of belonging, especially during this time of isolation.
