Blackness in Canada: Transforming the Nature and Not Just the Face of Social Science Research


Project Summary:

The “Blackness in Canada” research project examines Black Canadian identity, practice, and experiences with the intent of building networks aimed at equity policy development, implementation, and outcomes.
