Last week I had the absolute pleasure and honor to be able to document the Ottawa launch of the book 'The Letters: Postmarked Prejudice in Black and White'
Author Sheila White delivers a detailed presentation about struggles faced by her parents, a biracial couple from Nova Scotia during the 1940s
Her book is a captivating novel about their life and adventures as they moved throughout their life from the maritimes to Toronto. Her father William 'Billy' White, a talented musician and activist, eventually receiving the order of Canada in the 1970s.
A poignant discussion history of racism and prejudice in Canada.
