Some conversations are uncomfortable, but they’re necessary.

Black mothers and fathers have been sounding the alarm about their missing Black boys in Ontario for years. As these disappearances continue our country is in a state of emergency. Awareness starts at home.

You can’t celebrate Canada’s story without telling the whole story.

Black Canadians have been builders, leaders, entrepreneurs, activists, and changemakers for generations—even when the country didn’t always recognize them.

This Canada Day, we’re making space for our History.

Minister Paul Calandra, how long will you neglect Black students?

Dreams Delayed is about the voices too often ignored in education — students, whose futures were impacted by systemic racism.

You’ve seen the reports on Peel Police & Dufferin-Peel Catholic—this is just one example of systemic harm. We know there’s more.

Take a seat at Community Townhall on anti-Black racism in our schools & communities.

Join us to build a plan forward.

Call Doug Ford’s office.
Tell him to remove Paul Calandra as Minister of Education.
1,191 reports of racial harm in schools.
57.8% involve neurodivergent Black children this year.

Flood the lines. Demand accountability.
Black children deserve better.

This is not one incident.
This is a pattern.

A 7-year-old Black, neurodivergent child was harmed by the very people meant to protect her.

We demand a full, independent investigation.
We demand accountability.

Our children deserve safety. Not silence.

[Parents of Black Children @PoBCAdvocate]

Black educators were harmed during a PRP “Safe Schools” training.
Staff were taught to identify “gangs”—every example shown was Black. Blackness was linked to criminality.
This harm follows Black students into classrooms.
Police do not belong in schools.
No to Bill 33.

[Parents of Black Children @PoBCAdvocate]

NOT GUILTY.

The court confirmed this was an accident—not a crime.

A Black child was criminalized for something that was never criminal—while grieving his mom.

The community asked who must be held accountable—here it is.
