N.S. senator calls for Canada to officially recognize Emancipation Day ift.tt/3k2DmFB

Today is Emancipation Day, marking the day when slavery was abolished in the British colonies. NS Senator Wanda Thomas Bernard is urging Canadians to recognize this date 👏🏽 google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.…

As we mark the 186th anniversary of the abolition of slavery, I invite you to pause, to reflect, to remember, and consider what actions you will take to promote awareness in 🇨🇦 about the importance of #EmancipationDay. Happy Emancipation Day!

Anti-racism protesters have planned a march Saturday through the streets of Vancouver to mark Emancipation Day — a date commemorating the abolition of slavery across the British Empire. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

K, I just love how Lebron is singing along to the Canadian national anthem.

On August 1, 1834 the Slavery Abolition Act came into effect. This act officially freed slaves in Canada. Let us celebrate Emancipation Day by committing to end systemic racism in all its forms. None of us have justice until all of us have justice. #EmancipationDay

I’m beyond thrilled that my friend Joe Biden and our first Black and Indian-American woman Vice President, Kamala Harris, are headed to restore some dignity, competence, and heart at the White House. Our country sorely needs it.

Let’s remember that tens of millions of people voted for the status quo, even when it meant supporting lies, hate, chaos, and division. We’ve got a lot of work to do to reach out to these folks in the years ahead and connect with them on what unites us.

Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.

Funny you should ask......
