My multicultural upbringing spanning three continents has nurtured my interest in African diasporic livelihoods and the theory and praxis of Black solidarity. My racial reckoning began in 2018 when I moved to Montreal to pursue my studies at McGill Law. The pervasiveness of the Anti-Black Racism I experienced in law school has fundamentally altered my sense of self, belonging, and, most importantly, my aspirations. Learning about Montreal\u2019s Black history marked the beginning of my healing journey and has allowed me to situate my own experience with generations of Black Montrealers longing for that sense of belonging. As an aspiring writer and lawyer, navigating institutional violence has fuelled my desire to pursue an impact-oriented career utilizing my experience and passion for law, policy, and advocacy to improve education law and policy. I am excited to be writing the final chapter, where I explore the continuing strategic mobilization of Black Montrealer\u2019s through the nexus of local and international solidarity.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1z7ml2-b00906ceb00adff0a95bfdd081ee6238\">\n.flex_column.av-1z7ml2-b00906ceb00adff0a95bfdd081ee6238{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1z7ml2-b00906ceb00adff0a95bfdd081ee6238 av_two_fifth  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-l0g214jv-3c1f651f8877af5a6641166bf585ba8b\">\n.avia-image-container.av-l0g214jv-3c1f651f8877af5a6641166bf585ba8b img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-l0g214jv-3c1f651f8877af5a6641166bf585ba8b .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-l0g214jv-3c1f651f8877af5a6641166bf585ba8b av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-5  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-8822 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-8822 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/sIQ3mILrQ1ekCriAqodYyg_thumb_5a0.jpg\" alt='' title='sIQ3mILrQ1ekCriAqodYyg_thumb_5a0'  height=\"542\" width=\"599\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_1'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-8797'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":867,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-8797","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8797"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8797\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8825,"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8797\/revisions\/8825"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/867"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oldbcrc.webworldst.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
