What has changed in the year since Waterloo Region's Black Lives Matter march?

The calls echoed around the world, and in the Waterloo Region, thousands of people marched in solidarity in a peaceful protest through downtown Kitchener.
One year later, those same streets are quiet and a major question remains: has anything changed?
“We've seen a lot of people get hired, there were a lot of positions created. In terms of actual change I don't think we've seen much of anything,” said Teneile Warren with ReAllocate Waterloo.
According to Selam Debs, a local anti-racism educator and activist said it is encouraging to see how grassroots organizations have mobilized and created a shift in the community.

Students and family advocates to help Black children in school: Province

March 4, 2021 ·

By Brock Weir
Black students in the GTA and beyond will get a boost towards achieving their educational goals through the creation of a new initiative fostering student and family advocates.
On Monday, the Province announced $6 million in funding over the next three years “to help Black children and youth achieve their educational and career goals.”
The advocates will “provide community-based and culturally relevant supports to Black students” between the ages of six and 25 while also speaking up for Black families within the education system.
The move follows a 2020 review of the Peel District School Board which found “Black students are disproportionately subject to disciplinary measures, with Black students making up only 10.2 per cent of the high school population but representing 22.5 per cent of students receiving suspensions,” said the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services in a statement.

Black History Month | Orangeville Citizen

MPP SYLVIA JONES
FROM QUEENS PARK
The month of February is Black History Month: an important opportunity to celebrate Black culture and mark the significant contributions made by Black Ontarians to the success of our province and our country. It also provides a time to shine a light on injustices in our past and present.
Last year we welcomed a new community website: Dufferin County Canadian Black Association – https://dufferincountycba.org – whose mission includes a platform to provide leadership for the continued development and enhancement of the Black community through civic engagement, education, programs and services and to advocate for equity and wellbeing for the Black community in Dufferin County. This is a valued resource for many individuals and families who are watching our communities grow. DCCBA has already hosted virtual events and has a number of events lined up that focusses on outreach, education and leadership. On February 20th, DCCBA is partnering with the Museum of Dufferin (MoD) to host an on-line panel that will discuss opportunities for our community to come together as a unified force, and what this means for our future. I look forward to join the panel for this discussion. Find out more information and get the link to the live stream at: https://www.dufferinmuseum.com/event/bhm/
