New research is set to be done on how systemic racism affects members of New Brunswick s Black community.
The Department of Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour says it will spend about $85,000 to create a team of researchers, including members of the New Brunswick Community College, the president of Black Lives Matter New Brunswick and two professionals.
The study will focus on the key indicators of systemic racism and the barriers it creates for Black people and will look at best practices for alleviating it.
