On the evening of February 1st, the Community Race Relations Committee of Peterborough (CRRC) kicked off Black History Month with their Proclamation Event in collaboration with the City of Peterborough and the Peterborough Public Library.
It is impossible to move on from the past without admitting and addressing what had happened. The future is bleak if the mistakes of the past are not recognized, addressed, and compensated for. Canada’s multiculturalism policy is set to fail because the country has failed to address the way it has marginalized several groups. Canadians compare themselves to the United States and convince themselves that they are better because they are not as bad. A long history of slavery, racist immigration policy, segregation and violence against Black people in Canada is continually disregarded because it is not taught nor talked about.
Welcome to Issue 2. What to expect: BLM Nogojiwanong takes over Arthur with articles by Shae McLeod, Alicia McLeod, and Sutton Hanna, featured photography from Jonathan Semugaza, a Trent Professor thinks Conservative academics are under attack, and much much more!
Compiled by BLM Nogojiwanong, this zine is a collection of Black and/or Indigenous photographers, digital illustrators, traditional artists, and more. BLM Nogojiwanong aims to give the artists contained in this Zine a platform for which they can showcase their work, as well as create a strong network of Black and/or Indigenous artists. Physical copies are available for purchase on a sliding scale of $10-$20.
Issue 5 features reporting on events centred around Black History Month both in Peterborough and Durham Region as well as a host of local community arts, culture, and politics stories - including the unveiling of the new crest for Gidigaa Migizi College during this year's Elders and Tradsitional People's Gathering. FInally, as things ramp up for the TCSA's spring elections, we're hopeful that students will make informed decisions on the questions the Association is asking them to vote on, again.
This week, the editors have a big announcement. Thanks to Bill C-18, Arthur's hiring policies have been revamped and starting next volume, all applications and expressions of interest must be made through the paper's Bumble Bizz profile.
