1. Rapport sur « Ce que nous avons entendu » Tables rondes sur la lutte contre le racisme envers les Noirs en éducation

   Les dirigeantes et dirigeants de la communauté noire et les communautés sont les fers de lance de la lutte contre la discrimination systémique et de la progression vers l’égalité raciale en Ontario. La Commission ontarienne des droits de la personne (CODP) est consciente que les personnes, les organismes et les groupes citoyens noirs œuvrent depuis des décennies sur les questions liées au racisme envers les Noirs dans le système d’éducation. La CODP est consciente de l’importance du travail réalisé par des générations d’universitaires et d’organismes citoyens et communautaires et y adhère pleinement, et mesure les grands progrès accomplis pour protéger la sécurité et le bien-être des enfants noirs pris en charge dans le système d’éducation publique de l’Ontario. La CODP s’est employée à se saisir de ce travail et à le préserver dans le cadre de son initiative de riposte face au racisme envers les Noirs dans le système d’éducation de l’Ontario. Nous sommes reconnaissants de cette contribution et nous rendons hommage aux personnes qui y ont participé.
