The Anticolonial Black Pharmacy Students’ Association: How the Education of Racialized Medical Conditions Will Change the Field of Pharmacy.

Abstract

Having a student led event meant to inform marginalized groups is decolonial. Because Universities are colonial institutions, and student are often the first to act when the institution does not. The Black Pharmacy Students’ Association at the University of Alberta is an example of a student group that acted to educate students of colour about skin conditions on dark skin, using their education as an anticolonial method.
