From: On Account of Darkness

$1.00

This chapter reiterates the depth of scars left behind by colonialism and the residential school system on Indigenous communities, scars left behind by Japanese Canadian internment and discrimination, and scars left behind by anti-Black racism on Black communities in Canada. The author reiterates the need to acknowledge Canada’s racist history as well as remaining barriers and discrimination still faced by non-white Canadians today in the world of sports and beyond.
