Given the dark history mired with racial segregation/violence during slavery and colonial times, many people of African Descent have used lots of platforms to advocate for their fundamental rights and equity.

The African Descent Summit is one of the platforms that will bring people of African Descent from different walks of life together to reflect on their common agenda and aspirations. The Summit will therefore strengthen action to dismantle the obstacles encountered by People of African Descent in Canada and beyond. Furthermore, it will promote knowledge about African Canadian heritage, and many fundamental contributions of People of African Descent in humanity advancement. This will be through presentations from outspoken pan African speakers, Key influential African Descent Canadians, Black Canadian, music from legendary African artists as well as showcasing of art and culture in various forms.
