    [Ge] was completing a residency at the Public Health Agency of Canada. His research has focused on Indigenous health, anti-racism and decolonization.

    I feel his research would make him extra qualified to call references to modern apartheid and settler colonialism.

          Apparently people speaking about equity and diversity issues have to be transgender, bisexual, a person of colour, Arab, AND Indigenous, otherwise they are disqualified to speak about any human rights cause.
