Great time to revisit our report on the top 10 issues for Black youth based on data from consultations with over 1500 community members bit.ly/3dOUxXK #1 issue? Pervasive anti-Black racism that interlocks with other structures of oppression #BlackLivesMatter #ONYouth

Old tweet from Uzo Anucha that's still relevant in this #COVID19 era: “Youth workers are often at the centre of #youth lives but at the margins of decisions that shape #YouthWork. #ONyouth policy needs their voices too!“ Youth workers are key to better outcomes for #ONyouth!

720/ "It is clear that Black youth...were overrepresented in stops conducted by Toronto police." & "The disproportionate stop-and-search rate of Black youth is not an appropriate response to a high crime rate among Black youth and does not represent...efficient police practices."
