This workshop will examine the history of racism through the lens of anti-Black racism in Ontario's school system. It will provide an overview of the differential experiences of Black students and their families and issues such as streaming, low teacher expectations, high push-out rates, and disengaging Eurocentric curriculum.

This will take place January 15 during the SAC meeting time (6:30-8pm). It will by hybrid as usual with child minding and pizza for those attending in person.
