To me like Africville should be in the museum for human rights – the story of Africville.
People should know about north books. People like Viola Desmond, who was an individual,
I believe in the 50s, a black woman who tried to go see a movie, basically, and was kicked
out of a segregated movie theatre. Made to move upstairs and refused to go upstairs and
was arrested similar to Rosa Parks – before Rosa Parks. And this is a black Canadian woman,
a business woman, a woman who owned a business, but not a lot of people actually know that
this person exists.
