This talk will address my positionality as a woman of colour at a predominantly White university that values liberal education, where individuals are expected to “foster free inquiry and the critical interpretation of ideas” (University of Lethbridge, n.d., para 2). However, this expectation is not always translated into transformative actions. As such, I will shed light on how the resilience of my faith has empowered me to deal with complexity, diversity and change in dominant White spaces, where colonial ideas are privileged over alternative ways of knowing and being.
