Colonialism: Global Development's Painful Origins.
This week it is a window into the University class experience with Dr. Huish and Tari Ajadi. Tari offers some detailed clarification after students at Dalhousie University covered a chapter and a lecture on Colonialism in Development. If you're curious as to what we discuss in our Introduction to Development Studies courses, here's your chance to find out all about it. And what a topic! Colonialism sets the development stage in motion with painful and brutal consequences still felt to this day. Tari Ajadi is a Ph.D. student in Political Science at Dalhousie University and he is a Junior Fellow at the MacEachen Institute for Public Policy and Governance. His research looks at the barriers to, and the opportunities for, targeted policies aimed at reducing racial health inequities. Tari has published articles in The Globe and Mail, The Chronicle Herald, University Affairs, and The Tyee. Follow Dr. Huish on Twitter: @ProfessorHuish
