Looks Like Me Paradigm

    • Documentary

The last racially segregated school didn’t close in Ontario until 1965. Since then, a lot of things have changed—or have they? Producer Shem Parkinson explores the history of racism in Ontario’s public school system and one student’s much-more recent experience with anti-Black racism at school. It all starts with one not-so-simple question: when was the first time you had a teacher who looked like you? This is Shem’s paradigm.
