The Ninth Floor: Black History Month Film Screening and Fireside Chat

Join EnRoute 2 Success, in partnership with Brampton Library, for a Black History Month screening of The Ninth Floor, followed by a panel.
About this Event

The Ninth Floor documents a pivotal moment in Canadian history. In 1969, Caribbean students at Sir George Williams University in Montreal were targeted and criminalized after raising concerns of racial discrimination. The film captures both the events themselves and the lasting impact they left behind.

Following the screening, participants are invited to stay for a Fireside Chat. The conversation will include voices from the community and will reflect on the role of systemic racism in the events depicted and how those patterns continue to appear today.
