Experiences and Impacts of Racism against Indigenous Peoples

Racism aimed at Indigenous Canadians is severe and can be linked to numerous characteristics. Political, economic, social, and cultural policies negatively impact the Indigenous population of Canada. Unfortunately, there any many common misconceptions still existing in Canada today that contributes to the unconscious-biases that often results in racism directed at these groups. A human rights-based approach to education and organizational policymaking for the eradication of systemic and interpersonal racism presents a chance and a workable alternative to existing issues. Currently, these are largely controlled by a colonialized approach that feeds racism and the ensuing disparities.
