Report on the series of 11 murals honouring Black Torontonians who have had a positive impact on the City. The murals were unveiled on Saturday as part of a Subway tour from York University to Union Station. Carl James, a Distinguished Research Professor of Education and Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community, and Diaspora at York University, comments on the project. James says it’s a way African Canadians can educate Torontonians and the rest of the world about the Black presence in Canada. Watch video on the City News web site.
