History still perceived through ’Eurocentric lens’

Black History Month helps fill in the gaps

tant from an educational standpoint, but also for youth beyond the classroom, Pryce said. "This is crucial for positive role-modelling and developing strong self-identities and hopefully more well-rounded, educated, and confident black youth who feel they, too, have something of value to contribute to society," she said. "All people need to learn to associate positivity and optimism with black culture that involves the contributions of black people to the arts, science, technology, religion and philosophy. This, I think, will help to foster an atmosphere of mutual tolerance and respect of people from all backgrounds that can extend beyond the classroom." Nikki Clarke, president of the Ontario Black History Society, said even though a major victory was recently scored when the federal government

an currency, there is still "a lot of catching up to do." A Nova Scotia businesswoman, the late Desmond defiantly refused to a leave a whites-only area of a movie theatre in 1946, and

was jailed, convicted, and fined. It’s believed her case was the first known legal challenge against racial segregation brought forward by a black woman in Canada. "Many people had no idea who she was," Clarke said of Desmond when the announcement was made late last year. "And this was recent history." For Clark, getting the message out about black history isn’t saved for one month of the year; it’s a 365-day effort, she said. "We could not go about our day without the contributions of a black person," she said, noting the electric traffic signal was invented by African-American Garrett Morgan. Carl James, professor of the faculty of education and Jean Augustine chair in education, community and diaspora at York University, said supplementary programs such as Black History Month, Asian Her-

itage Month, and Aboriginal History Month "tells us something is wrong with the way Canadian history is taught. "What’s missing is the telling of Canadian history where all people are a part of it," he said. Righting the wrong could start with revising the way Canadian history is taught in the classroom, James said. "We could look at school programs, we could look at cultural celebrations," he said. "When all these people are included in the main Canadian narrative, to me that’s the first step. Until that happens, programs like Black History Month are needed as supplementary programs to address what’s missing. Look at Viola Desmond. A number of Canadians didn’t know about her existence. They had never heard of her. It’s an indication of the value of Black History Month."

Growing up, Neysa Pryce recalls learning about European and Canadian history in school, while attempts at preserving and celebrating black history were "futile." "All I took away from those lessons involved Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad (which are undoubtedly important), but little did I know there was so much more that wasn’t being told," the Toronto resident, who is of Trinidadian and Jamaican descent, said in an email. "I enjoyed learning about all kinds of history as a kid. But it would have been much more inspiring to learn about black cultural heritage as well." This year marks 21 years Black History Month has officially been recognized in Canada, though it has been unofficially recognized for many more. Throughout the month of February, Black History Month will be celebrated through discussions and presentations highlighting significant contributions made by black people. And though it’s been more than two decades since their stories have been officially told, Pryce feels a lot has yet to be revealed, making Black History Month all the more important. "I think we still have a long way to go," she said. "In many ways we still live in a society that idealizes nonethnic peoples and perceives or views things through a Eurocentric lens." Not only is learning about black history impor-

EDITORIAL | OPINION

• OUR VIEW •

ABOUT US

Black History Month offers window into Canada’s past Toronto was the first municipality in Canada to proclaim February as Black History Month; a month dedicated to commemorating the contributions of AfricanCanadians to our culture and community. That was 38 years ago. It was because of the diligent pressure and persistence of the Ontario Black History Society which succeeded in having the city formally recognize the month - and now it’s proclaimed right across the country. Black History Month is, frankly, Canadian History Month and it’s important we know the compelling facts of our heritage. African-Canadians have struggled for equal opportunity and freedom from discrimination for far too many years. It began with the anti-slavery movement and evolved into the fight for basic civil and human rights. African-Canadian leaders of that time led with courage and determination. They include people like Viola Davis Desmond, a Halifax-born business woman. It was 1946 when she went to the movies in New Glasgow, N.S. while her vehicle was being repaired. She bought a ticket and sat on the main floor - not realizing this theatre had segregated seating. She refused to leave when staff demanded she go to the balcony. She was dragged out by police and spent the night in jail. She was fined $20 and charged and eventually convicted with defrauding the government of one cent - the tax difference between the balcony and main floor seat. Her challenge of the tax evasion charge brought national and international attention and raised awareness of racial segregation in Canada. Desmond was posthumously pardoned in 2010 and next year, she will be the first African-Canadian and first woman, aside from the Queen, to appear on a Canadian bank note. Others led with their entrepreneurial spirit. Carrie Best was the first African-Canadian to own and publish a newspaper. Elijah McCoy invented and patented a type of lubricating cup that dripped oil onto moving parts of a train while in motion. He also invented and patented the first portable ironing board at his wife’s request. African-Canadians have roots which date back to the 1600s. They were soldiers, farmers, writers, newspaper publishers, activists, engineers, athletes, politicians and performers. It’s our wish that future generations will know the history of African-Canadians just as well as any other group or historical event in our country’s timeline. Let’s educate ourselves about the contributions African-Canadians have made to our society - for the better.

Bylaw makes faith groups feel unwelcome When Toronto City Hall’s rotunda filled up last week with the supporters of a Scarborough mosque, people who were watching shrugged. The protest was meant to disrupt a city council meeting, but didn’t. Mayor John Tory was away. The leader of Sakinah Community Centre spoke to some reporters, saying the mayor and city were trying to drive Muslims out of Toronto. Soon enough, everyone went home. But that won’t be the end of it. Just as homes in the city are becoming more unaffordable for families, faith groups, especially those supported by newcomers, are feeling squeezed out too. What brought Sakinah supporters downtown was desperation. The city shut

Drive around industrial areas in Toronto’s inner suburbs, and you see places of worship and private schools. Industrial buildings remain relatively cheap, but in 2013, the city closed that door with a new bylaw. The discrimination Saki-

nah’s imam, Said Rageah, was talking about is economic. He’s arguing the city knows faith groups like his can’t triple their budget to get buildings with commercial zoning. "By banning our places of worship and schools you are telling us to live elsewhere. We will not," he says in a letter to Tory. "This will not end. This is a human rights issue." Sakinah established itself around the time the bylaw took effect, and disagrees with city officials about what happened. Its leadership may have made a big mistake, but after renovating the building, it must fight for it. In the inner suburbs, Sakinah’s choices aren’t unique, and this problem will worsen as more faith

groups come into conflict with the city. Tory says the city will work with the Toronto Real Estate Board "to ensure that other religious groups are informed of where they can legally operate." But reminding real estate agents of their professional standards is not the same as solving the problem. A city which welcomes diversity and protects religious groups must do more for them besides explaining they now need to find much more expensive properties to call home.

Toronto Black Film Festival screens in February The Toronto Black Film Festival will hit the screens in February, which is Black History Month. The festival, now in its fifth year, will showcase 40 films from 20 countries Wednesday, Feb. 15 to The Sunday, Feb. 19 downtown. Founded by the Fabienne Colas Foundation, the festival was created in 2013 as a not-for-profit, professional, artistic organization dedicated to promoting cinema, arts and culture in Canada and abroad. According to its web-

site, "in connecting black films with viewers of all colours and ethnic origins, we recognize the differences that make us unique and celebrate the shared values that bring us together. Coming together through art allows members of all cultural communities to better understand one another." Opening film Tell Them We Are Rising: The Story of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, by Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Stanley

Nelson, will be shown Feb. 15 at Isabel Bader Theatre, 93 Charles St., at 7:30 p.m. The Fabienne Colas Foundation has also created the Montreal International Black Film Festival; Haiti en Folie in Montreal; Fade to Black Festival; Dansomania - Dances from around the World; and the Québécois Film Festival in Haiti.

York office building to get demolished after all with the city. This decision reversed a Jan. 17 Etobicoke York Community council decision to refuse the demolition and to request the city’s chief planner to investigate whether the brick building has heritage value. The planner’s report would have returned

back to community council April 4. The City Solicitor advised city councillors that the city did not have the authority to refuse the permit, but could only decide whether to approve it with or without the owner entering into a beautification agreement.

DOMINIK KUREK dkurek@insidetoronto.com It may have been just a regular prayer service at York’s Masjid-El-Noor, but it sent a message far beyond the doors of the mosque. Local community leaders and politicians joined the congregation for their Friday, Feb. 3 afternoon service as a show of unity with the Muslim community and to denounce violence against any religious group. In attendance for the service as a response to the Quebec City mosque shooting that left six people dead and others injured were York South-Weston MPP Laura Albanese, who is Ontario’s minister of citizenship and immigration; Councillor Frank Di Giorgio; members of the office of MP Ahmed Hussen, who is Canada’s minister of immigration, refugees and citizenship; Learning Enrichment Foundation executive director Peter Frampton; and Greenborough Commu-

nity Church pastor Steven Bakai. "The incident was a result of Islamophobia. When you have government officials showing their support, it means a lot," said MasjidEl-Noor Imam Ibrahim Kureshi prior to the service. He said the local mosque has received a lot of support from area groups and organizations. It also received a piece of hate mail the day following the shooting, which the police are investigating. During the service, Kureshi gave a sermon in English in which he asked more than 150 worshippers to have hope. A terrible event in the Muslim community, the Quebec City incident resulted in many positives, he said. He said all levels of government have shown their support, particularly Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Jewish community who that same day were holding rings of peace at a number of GTA mosques, the sudden

Imam Ibrahim Kureshi speaks during a gathering at the Masjid-El-Noor Islamic Centre Mosque on Friday, Feb. 3, in the wake of the tragic shooting last Sunday in Quebec City. support of non-Muslims who have started coming to mosques to observe the service and learn about Islam, and more. Pastor Bakai came out to continue the strong connection between the mosque

and his church. "Now, with the events happening and unfortunately the political landscape, I think there’s more need for Christian faithbased groups or churches to show unity and solidarity

with our Muslim brothers and sisters, and most importantly, to emphasize the freedom of religion," he said. He said it is unfortunate the Muslim community is experiencing hatred. "It is unfortunate and sad

this mosque has received hate mail as well and it is something that is categorically at odds with teachings of Christianity, of Christ, or Judaism or Islam," Bakai said. MPP Albanese said she’s visited the mosque on a number of occasions to celebrate, and wanted to be there during this difficult time. "We want to show that we are a tolerant society and we do respect each other and live in harmony with one another, especially in an area like York South-Weston where it’s so diverse," she said. The outpouring of love the mosque has received didn’t surprise Councillor Di Giorgio. "All of us in government have reacted in a very supportive way - not only supportive, but broadcasting the fact we should not be tolerant of such actions taken by somebody who is obviously deluded and not of sound mind," he said.

They miss out on certain rites of passage and don’t learn the life skills that they would get from their fathers and grandfathers. "A lot of these children are dealing with abandonment issues, they’re feeling neglected. With that there is frustration. I really feel like there’s a big lack of guidance, which, in an area like where we are, there are so many vices that are readily available to these young children and easy for them to access," Reid said. "And, they’re very impressionable. They don’t have the same sensors that an adult would have, so they begin to adopt a lifestyle that isn’t necessarily healthy for them." The Don’t Front group will meet once a month for eight months. Outside of group gatherings, there is a

The Weston-based organization is taking applications for boys aged 13 to 18 in the Weston and Mount Dennis areas for its Don’t Front young men groupmentoring program. Unlike Big Brothers Big Sisters, participants will meet at Frontlines or if they go on a trip they will be in a supervised, group setting.

"They might talk about things that they might not feel comfortable talking about to their teachers or their parents, but they will still have that positive role model," she said. Mentors will be able to consult with Reid if issues come up through conversations they aren’t equipped to handle. "We’re not expecting the mentors to be a social worker, so Matthew will support the program in helping connect the youths to programs that are outside the scope of the mentoring program," Frederick said.

Heritage Toronto recently appointed Allison Bain as its new executive director. The agency’s board of directors announced the appointment in a statement on Jan. 31, noting Bain’s ties to two of Toronto’s "iconic" organizations the YWCA and Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Bain most recently served as the director of philanthropy for YWCA Toronto, but spent more than 20 years with TIFF starting on its inaugural executive committee and rising in the ranks to serve as both associate managing director and vice president of Human Resources and Planning. During her tenure at TIFF, the film festival grew

from six to more than 140 employees, with an additional 2,400 annual volunteers. Her new role with Heritage Toronto will be to further the agency’s mandate to enhance the understanding and appreciation of Toronto’s past and present among residents and visitors through education, commemoration, and celebration of the city’s diverse people, places and events. "As we look at the world stage today, it is more important than ever to understand our shared histories to build a compassionate city which honours its diverse stories and strives to ensure each resident feels reflected, and has a voice, in its future," Bain said in a statement.
