The Majesty of Black

By Eddie the Don

Black people have been a part of Canadian history for centuries, contributing to the fabric of the nation in various ways.

The presence of Black people in Canada dates back to the early 1600s when African slaves were brought to the region by European colonizers.

Over time, Black individuals gained their freedom and established vibrant communities across the country. Many Black Canadians played significant roles in the fight against slavery and discrimination, advocating for their rights and equality.

One notable figure in Canadian history is Viola Desmond, who challenged racial segregation in Nova Scotia in the 1940s, long before the civil rights movement gained momentum in the United States.

Her courageous act sparked change and is celebrated as a milestone in the struggle for racial equality in Canada.

Today, Black Canadians continue to make important contributions to various fields, including arts, sports, politics, and academia.

Their achievements and resilience have helped shape the multicultural and diverse character of Canada.

Memories across the Indian Ocean

An almighty safari Walking in the footsteps of our ancestors and re-living memories of our very own past experiences By Mitelia Paul This was the most memorable trip for many of us for a variety of reasons. We touched base with our early life in Africa, and we also travelled across the Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea, a sea route that our parents and grandparents took generations ago.
