The racially-motivated murder of a young Black man during a civic fireworks display on the Victoria Day holiday weekend in 2001 is a story that should be known in Canadian history. Why is it not? In respect and honour for Howard Joel Munroe, professors Stanley Doyle-Wood and Paul Cross examine the murder in view of historic and contemporary experience through discussion, analysis and a documentary introduction. For educational purposes, and as a resource in anti-racist and social justice study.
