Dr. Natasha Henry-Dixon will discuss the history of the commemoration of Emancipation Day in Canada and walk through what this cultural and political tradition illuminates about Black history in Canada. 

Speaker: Dr. Natasha Henry Dixon, Assistant Professor of African Canadian History at York University.
