He was 12. Playing at recess. At 13, he was charged with aggravated assault. Now at 15, he is heading to trial. This is not justice. This is the criminalization of a Black child. THIS IS A BLACK BOY'S DREAM'S DELAYED. Share his story. #StopCriminalizingBlackYouth

One year after #DreamsDelayed and kids are still being assaulted while Ford’s government does nothing. A Black parent is forced to beg for justice as they ignore racism and protect systems, not children. Stop silencing educators, students and community. This is violence. Enough.

@PoBCAdvocate @brandongonez @CBCCanada @TorontoStar @globalnews @CityNewsTO You have long raised urgent concerns about safety, accountability & dignity in schools. When a child experiences both sexual violence & racism and the system fails to respond meaningfully, it compounds harm and reinforces a message that Black children are not protected or valued.

Community pressure forced this acknowledgment from the Ministry—but anti-Black racism in Ontario schools remains unaddressed. PoBC will be echoing this directive to boards. Your duty is to students, families & community—not just the Ministry. Minister Calandra: meet with us.

TCDSB confirms the two educators involved at James Cardinal McGuigan are no longer employed. This happened because students spoke up and the community took action. We now look to the Ontario College of Teachers investigation. Justice is not complete. #TCDSB #AntiBlackRacism

Racist messages were exchanged by educators on a student-visible IG account at James Cardinal McGuigan Catholic Secondary School (TCDSB). Black students deserve safety — not silence or relocation of harm. If you are directly impacted, connect with us: parentsofblackchildren.org/help

Blatant anti-Black racism in our schools cannot be accepted or minimized. @PoBCAdvocate thank you for speaking out. I look forward to seeing public outcry on this. The MPP representing this school should be denouncing this behaviour and demanding accountability. #onted #ONpoli

Two North York teachers in #Toronto from @TCDSB's James Cardinal McGuigan Catholic High School placed on leave after racist messages (ie. N Word) shared by them on social media. One teacher allegedly wrote that these "F_____ N-word are all the same.” cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Grant said, “teachers that were part of the ‘disgusting’ incident should have their licences revoked & be made an example for future educators. She urges the school board to not ‘recycle’ teachers by transferring them to another school” We agree 100% @PoBCAdvocate @charlineGrant
