BLACK HISTORY MONTH
As mentioned yesterday, the theme for this year’s Black History Month is “Ours to Tell” - representing an opportunity to engage in open dialogue as well as a commitment to learning more about the stories Black communities in Canada have to tell about their histories, successes, sacrifices and triumphs. Black creators have paved the way for creativity and expression in the music industry, please enjoy the music created by black artists played over the PA system in the mornings this month.
Here is a short informational video about Black history in Canada. Have a great day!
