Anti-Racism Demonstration

On Sunday, May 21st, Kabataang Montreal (Filipino Youth Organization of Montreal) will host an anti-racism demonstration in light of the incident which took place at �cole Lalande in which a 7-year-old Filipino boy was
punished for eating with a spoon and fork.

Please join us as we call for an end to systemic racism and equal rights to quality education. Meeting point will be Shaad, Victoria and Van Horne (Metro Plamondon) on Sunday, May 21st, at 5:30pm.

For more information, contact Roderick Carreon at (514)803-9046

The Cagadoc family has received legal warnings, harrassment from school officials, and denial of racism from the Marguerite Boyes school board since the punitive treatment of seven year old Luc Cagadoc for eating with a spoon and fork exposed the systemic racism internationally.

For years, Filipino youth across the country have been experiencing all forms of racism within the educational system: racist graffiti in school buildings, harrassment, racial violence, lack of education accreditation,
and violent threats.

However, the closed door treatment of the school board is intolerable and we demand an open community meeting with the school board.

Now is the time for communities of colour to unite against racism!

RESIST ALL FORMS OF RACISM!
EDUCATION IS A HUMAN RIGHT, NOT A PRIVILEGE!
ACCESSIBLE EDUCATION FOR ALL!

CMAQ: Vie associative


Quebec City collective: no longer exist.

Get involved !

 

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
