Under the theme of “What would Winnipeg look like without racism?” the city has announced Anti-Racism Week will take place from March 21-27. In partnership with Immigration Partnership Winnipeg, the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce, Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba, Elmwood Community Resource Centre, Manitoba Association for Rights and Liberties, Human Rights Hub, and Black History Manitoba, the event coincides with the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
“Racism is still very real and it requires an unrelenting resolve from all of us pushing it back,” Mayor Brian Bowman said in press conference on Monday. “It’s important for every single one of us to continue standing up for what’s right. We can’t let racism fester in any corner of our community. The city is proud and honoured to partner with so many outstanding community organizations to put this week together.”
