Dre Dorothy Williams
change maker

The Afromusée’s very first exhibition, entitled Dr. Dorothy Williams, change maker, pays tribute to this remarkable intellectual and her decisive role in the recognition of Black history in Canada. Originally scheduled for February 2020, the exhibition has been moved to 2022 due to the pandemic. It highlights the work of Dr. Dorothy Williams, a pioneer in the documentation of African-Canadian history. Throughout her career, she has dedicated her efforts to researching, teaching and promoting Black history, notably through her ABC’s of Canadian Black History, an educational kit aimed at younger generations.

The exhibition highlights her major contributions in the fields of education, research and activism, showing how she has played a crucial role in raising the voice of black communities. Press, academic and community circles have hailed this Afromusée initiative for promoting black history and its impact in inspiring social change.
