Mar 24, 2026 - The Radical Labour of Care

When: Tuesday March 24th, 2pm
Where: George Brown Polytechnic, 200 King St. E., St James Campus, Room SJA 455E

How can we reimagine the systems that continue to fail the city's most vulnerable people through radical approaches to care? In an increasingly hostile and unaffordable city where housing, healthcare, and other basic needs are increasingly inaccessible, this Transformation Cafe explores the everyday/night labour of care work through decolonial and intersectional feminist perspectives.

Featuring Claire Dion Fletcher, an Indigenous midwife, leader, and educator, Lorraine Lam, a crisis outreach worker, case manager, and advocate in Toronto's Downtown East, and Grissel Orellana, the Program Director of the Latinx Womyn's Program at the Toronto Rape Crisis Centre/Multicultural Women Against Rape, this conversation will examine how panelists intervene in state cruelty by identifying the gaps and harms within systems that claim to provide care while also building practices of mutual aid, community safety, and collective survival.

Cum grano salis (Latin for 'with a grain of salt') is an expression of skepticism. In an era saturated with images, data, and competing truths, the potential for exaggeration and distortion is greater than ever. Doubt is integral to how we perceive and interpret the world today. We move continuously between trust and mistrust, truth and fabrication, constantly pausing to reassess what we have just seen, heard, or absorbed.
