PURPOSE

The BLACQ Project was created out of the need to better understand Quebec’s Black history particularly for the Black anglophone community where race and language have been barriers towards social inclusion, belonging and identity.

CURRENT PROJECTS

Last year the BCRC partnered with 3 community organizations to produce projects that focused on social inclusion, identity and cultural awareness of Quebec’s Black English-speaking community. This year the BCRC has created 3 new projects with  the goal of exploring identity and belonging. Click on a project below to learn more:

Untold Stories: Past, Present & Future

The Untold Stories project highlights the narratives of Black English-speaking Quebecers across three generations.

21 Youths Calling

21 Youths Calling is an album produced by English-speaking Black Youth. The album explores themes on identity and belonging in Quebec.

The Arrival’s Personal Legacy Process part 2

The Arrival’s Personal Legacy Process Part 2 is an art installation created by members of the Black English-speaking LGBTQ+ community that explores the theme of belonging.

Thanks to our Funders and Partners
