| Synopsis
|
"Trailblazers introduces readers to Canadas Black history through
the under-told stories of over forty incredible Black change makers.
Some of these trailblazers, such as Josiah Henson, have saved lives
through their bravery. Some, such as Viola Desmond and Bromley
Armstrong, have improved laws through their advocacy. Others, such as
Albert Jackson and Bernice Redmon, have broken down barriers by being
the first in their fields and inventing new ways of doing things.
With each short story carefully written in poetic form and
accompanied by...illustrations, this tribute brings complex topics
and historical facts to life." -Indigo website, 2021.
