BCAD Group

Hello Spring 💐March 21, 2022 📷 by

This is accountability and the beginning of justice for ALL.

This is not the end. This is the beginning! The beginning of justice for ALL!

BCAD Group condemns Anti-Asian Hate. We grieve the loss of the 8 people murdered in Atlanta, Georgia, and all those who have been victims of the ongoing Anti-Asian Racism in both the US and Canada.
Enduring a global pandemic together has shown us how totally connected our community is at every level. Many, however, have used the pandemic as yet another vehicle for engaging in racist, sexist, anti-Asian sentiment and as a front for enacting violence against people based on their racial and ethnic backgrounds. There is never a rationalization for such violence and there is no truth to any explanation that blames a particular group or country for COVID-19 or any of its variants. We encourage you to speak up and voice the truth if you hear these racist claims.
We are sharing some important Canadian Stats and support information from The RepresentASIAN Project™
We must ALL be the change we want to see in this world.

Dr. Oni Blackstock posted this powerful quote on Twitter today "If you have come to help me, you are wasting your time.

But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together --Australian Aboriginal Elder Lilla Watson

So proud to share the work I am doing in collaboration with Charline Grant of Parents of Black Children to fight Anti-Black Racism in the Canadian Education System. You can read about us and our work in Forbes

Two Formidable Women Take On Systemic Racism In The Canadian Education System The story of Joshua Telemaque, the Pickering, ON teen whose yearbook tribute to his grandmother was overwritten with a racial slur sparked the relationship between Charline Grant and Nicole McKinney and suddenly, their worlds collided. This is their journey to take on the Canada's school system.

“I choose to make the rest of my life the best of my life.”

As women we continue to lead, inspire, mobilize, change, create and participate in ALL the ways we want to ensure that there is a change in this world. Wishing everyone a Happy International Women's Day! May we use the celebration today to propel us all into women supporting women 365 days of the year!

“What We Cannot Acknowledge, We Cannot Address. We must begin with awakening the unconscious, being aware
of blind spots and then action on what we care about.”

Amanda Gorman "Maya Angelo said "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Your poem "The Hill We Climb" has inspired the world. It was such a honour to watch the youngest Poet Laureate share her work with the world. We are inspired by the promise you bring as a leader from the next generation. Grateful for you!
