Emancipation Day is being recognized officially for the first time this year by the governments of Canada and Nova Scotia. It commemorates the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 that became law across the British Empire, including Canada on August 1st, 1834. That's the time when the practice of slavery officially ended for millions of African people and their descendants in Canada and around the world. Earlier this year I had the honour of speaking to this important step with two women with a great deal of knowledge on the subject. Independent Senator Wanda Thomas Bernard and Dr. Afua Cooper with Dalhousie University.
