Shelagh’s Story
“Until recently, I had never thought about my part in a racist society. I always thought I was lucky to be raised in Canada, where most people didn’t think twice about the color of a person’s skin, their accent or their parent’s heritage. However, as I think back, I realize that I lived in a “white” area with other people of European descent. I was a teenager before I saw or met a person of a different race or creed.”
