From the Canadian Encyclopedia:
Black History Month is observed across Canada every February. Black History Month in Canada provides an opportunity to share and learn about the experiences, contributions and achievements of peoples of African ancestry. It was initiated in Canada by the Ontario Black History Society and introduced to Parliament in December 1995 by Jean Augustine, the first Black woman elected as a member of Parliament. Black History Month was officially observed across Canada for the first time in February 1996.
Here is a selection of library eBooks, library streaming videos, and websites where you can learn more about the achievements, contributions, and past & present experiences of Black Canadians. You can also discover more resources through Library Search.
