Against All Odds. I’m hitting the stage next Tuesday at the first Speakers Slam of the year. After loss, grief, and reflection, I landed on the speech I need to share. 2026 is about reclamation; and it starts with voice. @SpeakerSlam

Neil ‘Logik’ Donaldson and Tyler visited our school to present Stolen From Africa to our K-8 learners. This cultural historical awareness of the African Diaspora empowers youth by promoting empathy, mindfulness, and tangible change in the community.

The TTC subway system was a buzz of excitement and energy yesterday as specified subway stops with BHM murals were visited by many participating in the TTC's Building on Legacies BHM celebration. Music, spoken word, speeches and education for the many. @TTCNewsroom @SFA_Community

The start of the school year may be challenging for may kids. Here are some ideas from @kidsmentalhlth to help make your child's/teen's transition back to school a little easier.

School year is coming to a close.
And we are closing out with self reflection poetry.

Not in #Ward14, but here are amazing Black artists @peter_tabuns & @tdndp can help #Amplify outside of #BlackHistoryMonth for constituents here in #TorontoDanforth
Thank you @astrosankofa
HT @OBHistory @maritstiles @troy_delll @Logik416 @SFA_Community #BlackhurstCC
With no Black focused events being #Amplifed thus far here in #TorontoDanforth by @peter_tabuns, maybe getting the @tdndp on board to support the Leslie Barns as a permanent home does make a bit more sense.
@astrosankofa what's the best way to connect? teapawt.org/LanrickBennett/status/…

Slavery in Canada and Black Canadian resilience can be taught at the same time. What matters is the context in which it is taught. This infographic is an example of how we can teach details of the transatlantic slave trade and highlight Black resilience. stolenfromafrica.org/the-vau…

How did these musuem pirates think - stealing these national relics was the right thing to do - glad to see Egypt re-claiming what rightfully belongs to Egypt. Imagine what other stolen relics are still held in other museums - collecting dust in private collections @SFA_Community
