Canada's Darkest Dilemma: The Growing Problem of Anti-Blackness and How to Overcome it
T. C Evans, author
This guidebook explores the unique experience of being Black in Canada, the many aspects of Blackness, its influences, and the simple ways of overcoming the growing problem of anti-Blackness. By providing an in-depth knowledge-based-analysis, it lays out clear and practical steps that individuals, businesses, organizations, local communities, municipal, provincial, and federal institutions, can follow to remove all vestiges of anti-Blackness. Although his focus is the Canadian experience, the insights of this book transcend Canada and are applicable anywhere in the world with a growing problem of anti-Black bias.
It's a guidebook with catchy aphorisms, philosophical outlooks, and a touch of poetry. It makes the otherwise gloomy subject of racial discrimination gain a sense of respectable light by giving it a thorough gamut of reason. Its ideas are novel, its propositions daring, and it leaves those well versed with the subject of racism refreshed while catering to those new to it.
This guidebook sheds light on anti-Blackness in a way that no other writing has done before. Black People are not ever portrayed as victims caught in a twirl of an ancient evil of racism. They are presented as individuals whose very essence of humanity, although being tested by anti-Blackness, do not cower but remain resilient and are participants in the sweeping waves of change towards fairness and equity.
