Very sad to hear about the passing of Roger McTair, the trailblazing Trinidadian-Canadian documentarian known for 'Home Feeling: Struggle for a Community' (1983, w Jennifer Hodge da Silva) & 'Journey to Justice' (2000). A great tree has fallen.

Endless love to you Ian Kamau🌺

We owe a huge debt to the Black Cdn documentarians of this generation who witnessed the state demolish over and over again the ways we survive, make life, and love immeasurably on this land.

This past week, we gained an ancestor.

Roger McTair, we speak your name. We give thanks for your life. We lift up, and carry on, your struggle. May you rest in power and may all those you leave behind know peace🌺
