Do YOU need a book about Black Canadian history?! 🇨🇦📚

My name is LTtheMonk, and I think you need to learn something new. Something you weren’t taught in school, stories of unsung Black Canadian heroes, forgotten communities, and why the Klan got so big in Canada.

You’ll be amazed you didn’t know these stories before, why Martin Luther King & Malcolm X have some pretty deep ties to Ontario & Quebec, why the first hockey league in the world started in Nova Scotia, and why Canadians across the country can’t let go of the Confederate flag.

With this book all these stories will be yours: Grab your copy of “Learn Something Knew: Black Canadian History You Weren’t Taught In School” on paperback & eBook (audiobook coming soon) at the link in my bio now, and support the mission to educate Canadians on Black Canadian history!

The Stay Sensitized anti-racism Conference was a hit!! I had the honour of hosting the event, MCing and bringing some Black Canadian history quiz questions to a crowd of educators who do not want to get desensitized to the harm of racism in education, and want to make a better world for all young people ✊🏾

Dr. Jacqueline Battalora’s keynote on the invention of whiteness was mind blowing 🤯, Ernest Crim III’s keynote on racism and his own experiences with hate made me cry, and every speaker said something meaningful, forgetting the cliches we hear way too often and actually talking about anti-racist actions. BIG thank you to my brother @officialaubreynoronha for putting it all together, I can’t wait for next year! 🇨🇦📚

@ltthemonk has spent years bringing Black Canadian history to the streets — through interviews, deep dives, and content that reaches people who never learned this in school.

At Stay Sensitized, he's bringing that same energy into a room of educators ready to do the same for their students.

See you there: hellohope.ca/conference
May 12–13, 2026 | Ajax, Ontario

The @townofajax is the official partner of the Stay Sensitized conference.

It was an honour to MC the Canadian Union Of Public Employees Toronto Local 79’s Black History Month celebration this past weekend. As the largest Local in the country, @cupelocal79 represents Toronto Community Housing workers, nurses, early childhood educators, sanitation workers and much more, and as the event’s theme was “Celebrating The Power Of Black Organizing”, our Q&A quiz games HAD to cover some legendary Black Canadian organizers such as Bromley Armstrong 🇯🇲, the Order Of Sleeping Car Porters 🚂 & Carrie Best 🗞️.

If YOU want to book me for your event, celebrating & educating the world on Black Canadian history & culture, reach out via DM or at the link in my bio.

Thanks again @cupelocal79 ✊🏾❤️

Do you identify by your race, ethnicity, or nationality first?

@LTtheMonk took that question to the streets — and the answers reveal just how layered identity can be.

How well do we know our own history?

@ltthemonk took to the streets of Toronto asking one simple question: “Can you name a Black Canadian hero?”

The responses? A mix of pride, pauses… and perspective.

In 2025, we spoke to the people. We educated the people. Thank you for all the love and support (and hate) on these posts, and in 2026 MORE CONVERSATIONS AND MORE EDUCATION 🇨🇦📚

Canada or the U.S.?

We heard from Black Canadians — now it's time to hear what Americans think.

LTtheMonk hit Venice Beach to find out - Where did it happen? 👀
