How much do we know about black history in Canada? Who were the key figures? What do we lose when we don't include black stories in our history?

Join a live roundtable discussion moderated by Amanda Parris, host of Exhibitionists on CBC Arts and Marvin's Room on CBC Radio.

When: Tuesday, May 16 at 7 p.m. ET.
