This is real talk that puts #BlackHistoryMonth in the present. The work to fight racism in all its forms continues. Every. Single. Day. 💯

[Greg Fergus @GregFergus]

As a Canadian, I stand for our freedom of speech, for our right to protest peacefully and respectfully. The only way to eradicate all forms of hate in our society is to not passively stand by when it happens. 🇨🇦

I know people look to me as a prominent Canadian Muslim to say something profound on #Jan29. It’s honestly hard to engage with this day without getting upset about where we are 5 yrs after innocent Muslims were murdered. My presence on TV is a win, but there’s so much work to do.

Yes ma'am, been listening all week! 👊💪

Lol! Belly full of laughs on this #TheMoment piece! 😃

Loved the dedication to yummy #Jamaican food to go trekking out on a day like this. Plus, also loved the #PR/marketing opportunity this story provided for the restaurant, #NiceysEatery.

[CBC News: The National @CBCTheNational]

A Jamaican restaurant in Toronto has offered a free meal to a customer who braved a snowstorm — only to find the store closed. #TheMoment
