LOVE, RESPECT, INCLUSION

Exciting things are unfolding!
Let's create room for learning, listening, and reflection! I naturally sense the importance of honoring the people I cherish, including my beloved customers. Taking the time for crucial discussions about systemic racism is crucial. I'm committed to learning and finding ways to inspire and educate those around me on this vital issue. Supporting the POC in my community is a priority, recognizing that while I may not change the world alone, I can make a difference in my own backyard. It's like tending to a beautiful garden, where each relationship is nurtured with love, respect, and inclusion.

Tegan from the Travel Curve interviews Brittany from the Walls family. She is the "Griot" - Keeper of the oral history and responsible for the continuation of the Museum to enrich and educate us and future generations.

The Underground Railroad was the first great freedom movement in the Americas. It was the first time that good people Black and White and of different races and faiths worked in harmony for freedom and for justice. The abolitionists would use railroad terminology to confuse the slave catchers. A CONDUCTOR would be a person who would lead the fugitives to freedom. It would be their responsibility to get the PASSENGERS (fugitives), from one Station (safehouse) to another until they would eventually reach a TERMINAL in northern U.S or Canada, where there was freedom.

Charity starts at home.

Over the years, my dear friend Melisa (who passed away in 2019) used to share stories about her friend Winston Walls and the incredible work he, along with his brother Bryan, was doing at the Underground Railroad Museum. The Walls family's dedication to educating the public in Ontario about the Underground Railroad, the first significant freedom movement in the Americas, always left me profoundly inspired. I firmly believe that to change the world, one must begin in their own community.


I reached out to Winston and received uplifting news – with the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum is open again for tours this summer. This is a significant moment as they resume providing their crucial Black History enrichment to the community, marking a return to their impactful work after over 30 years.
