Anti-Black racism is a troubling phenomenon that Ontario educators have become increasingly aware of in recent months. Creating teaching and learning environments where all students see themselves, can learn, grow and thrive is important to their success. Data show that not all students are achieving to their full potential due to systemic racism and other barriers to their success. There is growing acknowledgement in education that teachers’ practices must change. Antiracist education is not an “add-on”. To be effective and create lasting change it must be embedded into practice. This interactive presentation connects theory to practice, identifies ways that teachers can embed and weave antiracist educational practices in their everyday work, and explores strategies to sustain the work to combat racism and anti-Black racism over time.
