BLACK SHIRT DAY

On January 15th, thousands of students, educators, and citizens across British Columbia and Canada wore black shirts in recognition of the struggle for civil rights fought by Black and racialised Canadians.

​Commemorating the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr., Black Shirt Day is both a day of education and remembrance, and an invitation to a necessary conversation about racial justice.
