Join the conversation with the formidable Ms. Rosemary Sadlier, a vanguard for diversity, equity, and inclusion, as we celebrate the indomitable spirit that brought Black History Month to national prominence in Canada. Weaving a tapestry of perseverance and hope, Rosemary recounts her pivotal role in lobbying for its federal recognition, building upon legacies left by Dr. Carter G. Woodson and the Canadian Negro Women's Association. Her determination paved the way for a more inclusive narrative that recognizes the rich history and contributions of African Canadians, challenging educational gaps and misconceptions along the way.
Venture into the shadows of Canada's past as we uncover the hidden narrative of slavery within its borders, its abolition, and the reverberations across the British Empire. Rosemary takes us through her nuanced contributions to the Royal Ontario Museum and her mission to authentically represent African history. The conversation turns reflective as we examine the significance of acknowledging Olivia Lejeune, Canada's first named enslaved African, and consider the necessity for public apologies in the quest for true diversity and inclusion.
Wrapping up our profound journey, we draw inspiration from the legacy of Harriet Tubman, illuminated by Rosemary's research and the powerful emotional reunions of Tubman's family she facilitated. Rosemary shares the impact of her children's literature on African Canadian history and the accolades that have followed her tireless advocacy. Her parting advice to future educators and advocates is a beacon for those striving to make a positive change in society, reminding us that the work of equity and inclusion is far from over but within our collective power to achieve.
