The ways that Black students are constantly misjudged and mistreated by teachers and guidance counsellors is an injustice to our community. As educators who seek to enrich an increasingly diverse nation, it is your duty and responsibility to encourage, motivate, challenge and strengthen Black students like all others. When you begin to see Black students as part of your community, only then will you effectively fulfill your job as an educator. ~ Black Student About This Project This report is the result of a collaborative project between Dr. Carl James, Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community & Diaspora at York University; the African Canadian Legal Clinic (ACLC); and the Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators (ONABSE). The community consultations were organized by the ACLC and ONABSE, while the research (data collection, analysis, and report writing) was led by Dr. Carl James with Tana Turner. JEAN AUGUSTINE CHAIR IN EDUCATION, COMMUNITY & DIASPORA The Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community & Diaspora is a university chair in the Faculty of Education which aims to advance access, equity and inclusivity to education through community engagement and collaborative action.
