I want to add, Tyrone, that it's changing our perspective. There has been considerable resistance to introducing black history into schools, from teachers and parents. It was all based on ignorance, because they weren't aware of the rich history and the contributions of African Canadians and their presence here for over 400 years. As Rosemary said, African Canadians are one of the founding cultures of this country.
That attitude has to change and teachers have to be more receptive and proactive in getting their local school boards and provincial ministries to change the teaching of history to include these African Canadians. So it requires a change of attitude, a change of our perspective on what Canada is.
A national museum would certainly help. When we introduce African Canadian projects into schools, we tell students to let these projects inspire them to go home and look into their own cultural backgrounds to discover their own cultural heroes. It's not only about us; it's about all of us. We are one.
