    Through the Exhibit, Into the Past

    As we close out this season, we’re reflecting on a powerful experience: our visit to A History Exposed: The Enslavement of Black People in Canada—a traveling exhibit that confronts one of the most overlooked chapters in Canadian history. Created with guest curator Dr. Afua Cooper in partnership with the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia, this traveling exhibit forces us to confront the realities of slavery on Canadian soil

    Before Freedom: Black Stories from Pre-1834 Canada

    De Costa and Le Jeaune stand as two of the earliest recorded figures in Black Canadian history—names that surface in the archives long before Canada was even Canada. Their stories take us back to a time when this land was known as British North America, a place still being shaped.   Through them, we catch a glimpse of what life looked like for people of African descent in the 1600s —navigating identity, survival, and status in a colonial world that hadn’t yet fully codified slavery, but was already laying its foundations.   #blackhistory365 #canadianhistory #celebrateblackhistory #bhms #podcast

    Polite Racism: The Foundation of Canada’s Immigration System Exposed

    In the early 20th century, behind the language of nation-building and progress, Canada quietly built barriers — policies designed not to include, but to exclude. In this episode, we uncover the story of Canada’s racist immigration policies during that time period— and the people they were meant to keep from ever calling this country home.   #blackhistory365 #canadianhistory #immigration #systemicinequality #bhms

    75 Klansmen

    It’s February 28th 1930, A biter cold night in Oakville Ontario Canada. The streets are quiet—still—until the sound begins. A Slow. Rhythmic. Sound of Boots striking pavement. 75 men are marching down the middle of the street, an unusual sight in this small Ontario town. Even more unsettling is what they’re wearing: white robes, and pointed hoods   The klan has arrived on a mission, they have heard that a Black man and a white woman have been seen in each others company and they have arrived to do something about it.   #canadianhistory #celebrateblackhistory #oakvilleontario #bhms #blackhistory365
