Trailblazers: The Black Pioneers Who Have Shaped Canada

Ridley-Padmore, T.
This engaging collective biography focuses on more than 40 Black Canadian trailblazers from the early 1600s to the present day who fought against inequality, racism, discrimination, and segregation and created positive changes in Canada. This easy-to-read work allows students to learn about the issues the Trailblazers faced, the accomplishments they achieved, and the contributions they made to society. Each biography includes a caricature-style illustration, a paragraph that introduces the key events and achievements in the person’s life, and a poem that adds descriptive information.
