SFA⚡️(STOLEN FROM AFRICA)

Against All Odds. I’m hitting the stage next Tuesday at the first Speakers Slam of the year. After loss, grief, and reflection, I landed on the speech I need to share. 2026 is about reclamation; and it starts with voice. @SpeakerSlam

Shame on Louis Vuitton for stealing plagiarizing African designs #fashion #Africa #StolenFromAfrica

@spectatorindex France’s gold is stolen from Africa.

@ShaunGray64470 @GSpellchecker Called us dirty and uncivilised, but we fed and cleaned their children and homes. Called us dumb, but if we were dumb, why did they make it illegal for us to read and vote? We were none of those things, when we were stolen from Africa, everything was taken and we were lied to.

Looking forward to boarding this train @UofTBMSA @CABR_Toronto @Blackinthe416 @BLACKcda @blkmail @BYJToronto @Blackmusicmnth @maccamarkham @NaccaNewmarket @tdsbAfricanHM @VACAORG @alldaysfa @AfDB_Group @CARICOMorg @CaribbeanSAssoc @CaribbeanSNTO

Everything is Stolen from Africa

We had a wonderful hybrid session creating vision boards! Thank you to our virtual facilitator @LauraKayKeeling and our in person assistant @MITMClub for supporting students through this creative process! We would also like to thank @KidsUpFrontTO for making the connection 🙌🏾

😒😒😔Stolen from Africa

Big shout out to our youth leader Raheem for representing SFA on CBC News! Discussing program initiatives and what is needed for youth and staff experiencing violence in schools.✊🏾 #sfacommunity

Thank you @KidsUpFrontTO for the opportunity to bring a bunch of our youth and families to the Raptors game! We had a blast! Experiences like these create bonds that last a lifetime 🥹🙏🏾#Beagoodfriend

Lots of amazing things going on within the @tdsb ! We have the honour of providing culturally responsive program supports for students at Alvin Curling Public school! Dr Alvin Curling is a trailblazer in many ways, including having a school named after him. Wowzers 🙌🏾

Thank you Foad of @JusticeFundTO for sharing space with our students at Runnymede C.I. Your words of wisdom , compassion through an empathetic heart was exactly what we needed for the topic of forgiveness. This is the value of bringing community into the classroom 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Our method is centred around student voice, this is how we build rapport and allow students to feel seen heard understood and supported! Parents and school staff need this too! Don’t worry; we have something for you;) @cnewmannews #sfacommunity

Today, in our “Be A Good Friend” program for middle school students, we explored the importance of advocacy, for self and others though interactive games, multimedia and written reflections. Let’s continue to connect , inspire and ACTIVATE @TCDSB #sfacommunity

It’s amazing when past program participants become guest speakers and facilitators themselves. Today, Najma joined our Runnymede C.I group share stories of resilience as a teen mother. This was an eye opening testimonial that kept our students engaged cc @DebbieKingPHP

Black women were mandated to breastfeed white kids during the slavery era and It was also mandated by the slave owner that only one breast could be used to feed the white child, If she switched up and let both black and white babies suckle from the same breast, she could be whipped because it was like them sharing the same water fountain.

This is what I’m getting as a BORN and raised Canadian #HateRunsDeep
