People of African Descent was created only recently by the United Nations and is set to be celebrated internationally for the first time this year.

This first observance comes in the midterm of the International Decade for People of African Descent, another U.N. initiative. This has largely influenced the creation of this holiday. According to the U.N., 2020 marked the year of a significant change in the way issues of discrimination and marginalization against people of African descent are addressed on a global scale.

No concrete progress has been made at legislative, policy and institutional levels in Canada, except lip services.

People of African descent continue to suffer intersectional and compounded forms of racial discrimination, marginalization, and exclusion.

Five years into the Decade, the COVID-19 pandemic shed light on the systemic racism faced by black people in the form of oppression in the ne of health. There were no urgency to address long-standing structural inequalities and systematic racism in health for black people in Canada.

The lack of accountability remains one of the major barriers impeding the full and effective enjoyment of human rights by people of African descent in Canada.
