"Although Black Montrealers did not have segregated schools, back-of-the-bus enforcement or counters for drink and food, they still felt the occasional sting as establishments were legally permitted to racially discriminate." @dearjackiefilm cbc.ca/1.6509991

#blackcanadianhistory As a young Black man in Montreal in the 50s and 60s, Ronald Jones used boxing as an outlet and a means of self-defence. He competed in local tournaments and even appeared in the famous 1961 NFB documentary Golden Gloves alongside his brother Arthur.

'Burgz' is the nickname Little Burgundy locals have given their neighbourhood. Steps from the Gauron Bridge @ the Lachine Canal on the edge of Pointe-Saint-Charles & Little Burgundy, Burgz Cantine faces its namesake across the canal. 🧵 1/9
