It was wonderful to attend the Dartmouth Heritage Museum Emancipation Day Social and have an opportunity to listen to Senator Wanda Thomas Bernard.
Senator Wanda Thomas Bernard played a crucial role ensuring that Emancipation Day is officially recognized across Canada. A true force of nature, Canadians are well-served by having her voice in the Senate.
Also, oh my goodness, what a great baker. She made the biscuits for the strawberry shortcake.
Huge thanks to the great folks at the Dartmouth Heritage Museum for sharing a Black history pop-up exhibit and for holding this event. And thank you to Christ Church for hosting!
