ONABSE-Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators For the betterment of Black youth and educators in Ontario
LINK IN BIO: https://linktr.ee/onabse_org

The Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators affirms the inherent worth, dignity and educability of African Canadian people. The Alliance challenges forces that obstruct the achievement, development, and educational opportunities of youth and adults. African Canadian students throughout Ontario encounter problems that are directly related to their ethnic/cultural status. Based on the socio-economic disparity in which the gap between rich and poor is growing, those who already face structural racism and other forms of discrimination are particularly affected. African Canadian educators and others directly or indirectly involved in the educational process must develop the necessary structures through which they can meet, share ideas and focus sharply on the unique problems which they and their students face. The Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators will analyze and apply shared knowledge to the eradication of problems which stand as obstructions to quality education for all students and particularly African Canadian students.
