Greg Chan - KDocsFF Emerging Filmmaker Prize Juror and KPU Professor @GregChan_Ink 陈 家 格 (he/him) is an educator, producer, and documentary activist at @kwantlenu, where he has taught BIPOC literature and film studies in the English department since 1995. Specializing in intersectional social justice, he is the founder and editor-in-chief of KPU's official film studies publication, Mise-en-scène: The Journal of Film & Visual Narration and the co-director of @KDocsFF (through which he runs its Community Outreach Program, Social Justice Lab, and KDocs Talks lecture series.

Whether it is a Queer Radical Knitting Circle, an introduction to Chinese Mahjong, or an Indigenous Beading Workshop, Chan loves to create solidarity amongst the KPU campus community through KDocsFF Social Justice Lab programming. He is proud to be the son of a refugee who survived internment in India, a history which continues to inform his research, teaching, and community activism. #sundarprize #sundarprizefilmfestival #spff2024 #filmfestival #gregchan #kpu #kwantlen #kwantlenpolytechnicuniversity #kdocsff #kdocs #cinemameetssocialchange #storytelling #socialjustice #filmmaking #salish #coastsalish #vancouver #surrey

Thanks for sharing! These are actually hosted by KPU Wild Spaces, though the library is being awesome in helping promote.

Two awesome events hosted by @KPULibrary 💚 @allisonmdennert will be speaking at “A River Walk in a Salmon Forest” on Nov. 30 from 3-5pm at Cougar Creek. There's a chance you'll spot spawning #coho 🐟

Have you fired Natalie Knight?

A trio of @KwantlenU poets will host an authors reading Sept. 19 at @KPULibrary. Instructors Jen Currin (Trinity Street) and Renee Sarojini Saklikar (Bramah’s Quest) will be joined by KPU alum Nina Mosall (Bebakhshid). Read more: kpu.ca/news/2023/09/14/poetr…

Looking forward to diving into these questions and more in our Fall @KwantlenU Climate Challenge book club. Get your copy of Fire Weather: The Making of a Beast @KPULibrary or a book store near you.

Watch how the @KDocsFF Alice Street Legacy Mural came together. This painting took a lot of teamwork and pays tribute to Lyackson First Nation elder Kat Norris. Visit the @KPULibrary to see this incredible homage to Indigenous peoples, cultural diversity, and inclusivity.

So stoked to join an #OPEWeek23 event with Open Education librarians of @TRULibrary @VCCLib @KPULibrary. Library work like this making routes in our dense environments of BC Open Education resource management are truly treasure. Thanks @BC_OEL and @BCcampus for this gathering
