I'm happy to share that today is the release of the paperback edition of my book Lessons in Legitimacy: Colonialism, Capitalism, and the the Rise of State Schooling in British Columbia:

POV: being on this app as a university professor these days.

With the recent spike in residential school denialism, I'm happy to share this important conversation with Phyllis Webstad and Willie Sellars, "Truth Before Reconciliation: Addressing Residential School Denialism":

I’m looking forward to using this platform to fight residential school denialism and put truth before reconciliation.

Today, in Montreal, I was honoured to be inducted into the Royal Society of Canada as a Member of the RSC College.

I guess since you’re all here, you might as well learn more about what Dallas Brodie is doing and how residential school denialism is being used as part of the far-right’s strategy to undermine truth and reconciliation:

Think that reparations are just the absurd idea that hard-up white Britons who never enslaved anyone pay trillions to back people who were never slaves? If you’re open-minded enough, maybe consider this open access review of the arguments for & against? https://t.co/GnVDqdBc2V

Unhinged blue check mark comments are not really beating the charge, lmao, but go off and prove my point.

Look at the comments, too; further proving my point. Big loser energy.

Like, it is run by total losers for other losers that like racism. It’s not hard to understand. It’s honestly really sad.

Residential school denialism.

PWHL comes to the Peg March 22, 2026!! This is going to be unreal!! #PWHL

Can’t believe Gunn would say this so openly about Pierre Poilievre after he defended his residential school denialism. Wow.

“Now more than ever, it’s critical we know and understand the only path forward for all British Columbians is reconciliation” Grand Chief Stewart Phillip at the 10th First Nation Leadership Gathering, happening today and tomorrow. https://t.co/NPQFPJ66I0

This examination of Nigel Biggar's historical and moral arguments against reparations for slavery might be of interest, given the pro-reparations case recently made by @LennyHenry and an upcoming Al Jazeera debate between Biggar and @mehdirhasan https://t.co/MCQgbpsbSu

"We are extremely upset by MLA Dallas Brodie’s ongoing efforts to publicly cast doubt on the experiences and truths of residential school survivors." Grand Chief Stewart Phillip https://t.co/azRFG9Vfkh #bcpoli

This week on @CBCOnTheCoast with @vancolour: Soapbox Social: Cowichan decision igniting bigger conversation on reconciliation and misinformation "The misinterpretation of what the decision says has been used to seriously harm reconciliation efforts..." https://t.co/LDxiPM9Pyo

Today I was honoured to table my private member's bill, an Act to Amend the Criminal Code (Promotion of Hatred against Indigenous Peoples), to add to the Criminal Code the promotion of hatred through residential school denialism. We owe survivors more than words, we owe them
