Why Black History Month, sometimes referred to as African Heritage Month, and what does it have to do with the Children’s Aid Society of Toronto?
The month of February provides an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the positive and significant aspects of Black History and Culture. It gives us a chance to attempt to dispel the negative myths and stereotypes related to the “Black” race. Also, it is a time to raise some ugly realities of the history of our development, namely bondage and slavery.
