About Black History Ottawa
In 1995, the Government of Canada designated February as Black History Month, to celebrate the contribution of people of African descent to the Canadian mosaic.
The theme for 2014 is Our Canadian Story: Making Our Voices heard!” This theme will be highlighted in all Black History month 2014 activities
