HONOR THE PAST - CELEBRATE THE PRESENT - BUILD THE FUTURE

The Black Canadian Experience Centre acknowledges that we are on the traditional lands of the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island, including the ancestral territories of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene peoples, and the homeland of the Métis Nation.

We acknowledge and appreciate the ongoing resilience and resistance of the Indigenous and Afro-Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island in the face of colonial violence as they strive for self-determination and decolonial futures.

The African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) communities honor the memory of our ancestors who experienced forced displacement and trafficking to Turtle Island as a result of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, as well as those who migrated to these lands in this generation or earlier generations.

We recognize the impact of racial and colonial violence on African, Caribbean, Black, Indigenous, and Afro-Indigenous Peoples and affirm our commitment to standing in solidarity with Indigenous communities in the process of truth and reconciliation, understanding the importance of being respectful guests on these lands.
