ABOUT

Bridging Language and Culture in Quebec (B.L.A.C.Q.) is a collaboration between three English Speaking Black Community Organizations in Quebec. BCRC will help the three Partner organizations produce a series of online cultural events that explore the contributions of English Speaking Blacks to Quebec. They will include productions by and about the English-Speaking Black communities that strengthen and promote their cultural history. These productions are intended to promote cultural awareness, social inclusion and a sense of belonging while simultaneously providing cultural content that contributes to physical, mental and emotional well-being.
