@carlabeharry @ibramxk @RogerRossWill What a blessing!!!!

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@carlabeharry @PESIinc Yes Carla!!

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@TKPritchard Your little Remy gremlin is so blessed to have you. No matter how challenging it gets to navigate all the constructed identity boxes of our society, you choose to focus on loving and parenting Remy. This child has hit the parent Jackpot!!

Sad to hear that Island Mix restaurant in Kitchener is closing. The only place in KW w/ reggae, soca + R&B vibes, family-owned - of course have gotten too many “noise complaints” for their music, while white-owned businesses playing rock music down the street are thriving. 😡

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week! Social connections at work reduce stress, prevent burnout, and add a little joy to our lives. It all starts with kindness. Let's look out for each other! #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

Youth groups are a great way to build community and meet new friends! Check out these upcoming youth groups in May:

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@carlabeharry I have a childhood memory of Harry Belafonte too! My mom gave me his cassette tape when I was in the hospital for a week as a kid. I listened to it every day all day! Jamaica Farewell, Matilda, so many greats!

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@DrCSTaylor @carlabeharry @UWaterloo This is Amazing! Wonderful opportunity for black youth 😊

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

[Waterloo Region Record @WR_Record]

Data shows school boards are overwhelmingly white, change is slow, and teacher diversity is a distant goal

This level of hate & filth must not be tolerated. The level of lateral violence this msg spews is disgusting. I stand with Jully & love her for her Bravery.

[Jully Black @JullyBlack]

This is what I’m getting as a BORN and raised Canadian #HateRunsDeep

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@JullyBlack Jully you are a brave and beautiful Canadian. You keep rising above the hate, violence & ugliness. We stand with you, we stand together & we will keep making change. We ❤️ U sis.

[University of Waterloo @UWaterloo]

All #UWaterloo campus locations will open at 12pm today. Conditions in #RegionWaterloo remain slippery and could be hazardous in some places. Employees who are able to work remotely should consider doing so. For updates: https://t.co/hUeT06Mu7A | #ONStorm

We're continuing to celebrate Black History Month, which is a time to celebrate Black Canadian history, culture & communities. Throughout the month on Resource Thursday, we will highlight organizations or programs that serve and support Black individuals and communities. (1/2)

[Melissa Strachan @MelStrachanKW]

@carlabeharry I can tell you lots about this History Carla. I’m from this area & grew up surrounded by black history, black settlements & influential people that our history books never tell us about.
