As the vibrant heartbeats of our communities, the stories of Black Generations are rich with triumph, resilience, and innovation. Alongside my co-host Shennelle, who brings her passion and insight into our conversation, we peel back layers of history to share a narrative that resonates beyond a single month. This episode is a journey through the struggles, the victories, and the unyielding spirit of a people whose contributions have shaped our nation, yet often remain unsung. As we commemorate Black History Month, we underscore the imperative of weaving these narratives into the educational tapestry all year round, fostering a deeper appreciation and understanding of a heritage that is a cornerstone of American culture.
We stand on the shoulders of giants like Marcus Garvey., whose dreams have paved avenues of equality and respect that we continue to traverse today. In our dialogue, we not only spotlight the icons of civil rights but also embrace the personal victories and everyday grace that define the Black experience. It's about stoking that inner flame of pride and ensuring that the legacy of Black people is not relegated to the sidelines but celebrated as part of the continuous story we all share. So, tune in for an episode filled with heart, soul, and an unwavering commitment to the truth of our past, as we strive for a brighter, more inclusive future. Much love, and let's remember to always treat one another with the honor that is rightfully ours.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hello everybody and welcome, welcome, welcome,
welcome to Be Real with Love,with Love and Chanel.
I'm Love your host, and here wehave Chanel, your co-host,
that's joined us today.
Hi everyone, hope everybody'sdoing well.
Well, we're gonna jump rightinto it.
So, what month are we in?
We're in what February?
(00:22):
Right, february.
So it's Black History Month,that we're celebrating for the
month of February, you know, andwe just thought you know, it's
so important when we talk aboutBlack History, that is something
that really, really needs to betaught to who don't understand
(00:44):
or know or whatever, right?
So we're just gonna jump rightinto it, guys, just to talk a
little bit about us as Blackpeople.
And you know, really, theimportance of our experience of
being Black.
And you know, in a society thatyou know that's filled with a
lot of peer pressure, racism,you know, dislike, you know what
(01:10):
I mean.
So a lot of culture shock,right?
So, yeah, so it's celebratingour Blackness.
So what does you know?
You know how we're celebratingthe Black History Month.
It should be celebrated all thetime, all the time, you know.
Shouldn't you have to wait fora particular time to celebrate,
(01:31):
to recognize?
It should be recognized all thetime, especially in the schools
, especially in the schools,which I strongly believe that
they should have courses andclasses.
Yeah, I think they're gonnahave something like that, but
it's mandatory though.
Yeah, it'll be mandatory totake them.
I think that's very good, yeah,because they, they have
committed history for what?
(01:51):
For so many decades?
Yeah, and you have to take it.
They have to be one of thesubjects that you have to have.
Yeah, right, when I was in highschool, right, and you know it
was there was no Black historyto learn.
Nothing.
We're doing, like in the war,the war of 1812.
And I would say, what the flip?
This is boring.
What do you mean?
The war of 1812.
?
Yeah, you know, there was nosubstance, like it wasn't
(02:13):
something that you were sointerested in Sometimes.
Yeah, you know.
So it's really important that weare learned about, we are
understood.
It's very important that othercultures learn about ours as
well, right, and especiallypeople who are going to be going
(02:34):
into, like social work oranything in the health
department of learning aboutother people.
You got to learn about othercultures as well, right, because
these are people that are goingto be working with in the
public.
Yeah, that's true, right, andyou don't want to be going into
a job where there's racismeverywhere, but you still going
(02:55):
to understand where these arepeople are coming from.
Yeah, right, but it's sodifficult, you know.
I just think it's a littlebehavior when you know we as
Black people.
You know it's in the workforce,you know what I mean.
It's in the grocery store, yeah, it's in the banks, it's
everywhere.
You know what I mean and it isvery how should I say it?
(03:18):
It leaves a bitter taste inyour mouth.
Yeah, because there's a lot ofwe as black people.
We the our problem and a lot ofblack people probably don't want
to hear this, or don't I talkabout, but we need to respect
each other more.
Yes, that is true, becausewe're so good, we're concerned
about how we are treated.
(03:39):
You know it's not about all,about, okay, black history.
You know who invented this, whoinvented that?
You know we want that to berecognized as well.
You know, in the schools.
You know I think the hole in ahole, right, mm-hmm.
But at the same time, we asblack people, we need to look at
ourselves, yeah, you know, andlook at how we treat each
(04:00):
other's black people.
We're coming from the same kindof pain the racism you know,
being alienated, right Undermine, oppressed we're coming where
we all go through that pain,yeah, but at the same time there
is a breakdown, like there is amissing link with like we don't
(04:21):
respect each other, and that isdisturbing.
That's the issue.
Yeah, that is the issue.
And other people look at uslike, well, they don't respect
it, they don't respect eachother.
So I should we respect them?
See, I say that's the issue,right there.
And you know, black history isso important to celebrate.
It's so important to learn,just to know what our answers
(04:42):
just went through, for theyounger generation to learn what
their answers Just went through.
Right, it's so important tolearn all the different leaders,
you know, people who haveinvented certain things in this
world.
Oh, of course, why we're usingthem till this day?
Yeah, right, but they don'ttalk about it, they don't.
So hopefully this mandatorycourse for this is for our
(05:07):
Canadian, toronto, ontarioresidents.
Hopefully they can get more in,be more in-depth of Teaching
the younger generation.
But you know, when I was inschool, I mean, yeah, we heard
about our black, you know ourancestors, forefathers and
everything right, but we neverLike how it's coming more to
(05:31):
light of who invented this.
It was a black man who inventedthis.
Is a black man who inventedthat.
I always used to wonder why isthat majority?
It's always white people toinvent these things.
Yeah, we're.
Where's our black people?
Yeah, there must be.
Yeah, and there is black people.
When I was in middle school Iused to wonder there must be
black people that invented stuff.
(05:51):
Yeah, but when you come here,you know, when you come here and
you're in school, right, theCanadian school system, they
don't.
It's almost as if they, theywant to be.
It's a superior.
So if they can Put it on in ourbrains that the majority of
(06:15):
people who invented the soap,electricity, electricity, you
name it the first radio orwhatever, they're all white,
then we're gonna look at it tosay, oh, they're the leaders.
Yeah, right, there are theleaders.
Yeah, cuz I don't see anythingthat you know.
Yeah, our black people havedone such great things and there
(06:35):
, and there's a lot of you, yeah, when it was all alive, all
these.
That's why that knowledgebookstore is a good store.
It is to buy a book like, ifyou want your child to read up
about their, their black historyas well.
Book Knowledge bookstore inBrampton yes, yeah, you know,
that's where I got those firsttwo books and you guys were
growing right, but it's, it's.
(06:57):
I think it's very important toyou.
What is, what does it mean whenyou, you know, as a black woman
Coming up in, you know, insociety, what does being black,
what does that represent to you?
Being black means being strong,being resilient, never backing
down, chasing your dreams,loving yourself, accepting
(07:20):
yourself.
Right, knowing that being black, you are gonna make mistakes,
no matter what.
And there's times where you,when you're black, some more
times you're not gonna beforgiven, you're not gonna be
taken seriously.
But for me, being black isbeing strong.
I'm standing up, firm, beingresilient, staying true to who I
(07:44):
am, but loud.
So, but what about?
So that's that?
Those are the strength, right?
So what about the downside, thedark side?
What about that side of being ablack person?
You know that unfortunate side,or experience, or reality.
We get labeled, we get, I wouldsay from my experience, you get
(08:10):
criticized and you get put intoa category.
Right, being black, you're nottaken seriously.
The jobs that you qualify for,you don't get them.
The positions that you want,you don't get them right,
especially health system.
More times they don't take youseriously.
(08:32):
They don't investigate thereasons why you're really at the
hospital.
They just see what you're tosay, brush it underneath the rug
.
Right, education wise too.
There's things that we aresupposed to get, like grants.
We might get a one-two grant,but they don't tell us what
other stuff we're going to applyfor scholarships that were
(08:55):
entitled to.
They don't do that with my.
This is my experience.
I can you speak for myself?
This is my experience.
That's the downside of it.
When I see, I see, for blackhistory, I think it needs to be
when it comes around this time ayear, bigger things need to
happen, more like you see on thenews, all you know some, a few
(09:18):
like successful black people.
You know they're having somegala or whatever and stuff like
that.
But I, for me, in my opinion, Ithink more needs to happen.
Yeah, I really think more needsto happen.
Yeah, right, you know, withother cultures, like when it
comes to black history, when Ilook at other culture, when
they're celebrating, it's huge,right, and when we're
(09:41):
celebrating black history, yes,you'll see certain things and
stuff like that and all, and youknow they talk about Bob Marley
, you know, and you know, likejust different little things,
but I just think that moreshould be happening.
It should be more togetherness,right.
There should be morerecognition in terms of even if
(10:02):
you're not a black wealthyperson, but you've tried, you've
achieved, you know just us,being black, we've overcome
certain things and we're stillfighting.
Yes, you know, black history isnot only.
You know.
We had some amazing inventors,right, that has passed on.
You know our ancestors.
(10:23):
They were great, you know, intheir time, right, where they
can pass on, and we can carry on.
So I just think that thereshould be.
We're celebrating back blackhistory where we're gonna be
history, leave you guys behind,right?
I mean, it's that's just how itis and I just think that
celebrating our blackness, us asblack people, when I think
(10:47):
about black history and being ablack woman in society, I think
about fight, yeah.
I think about perseverance, Ithink about mental health, you
know.
I think about alienation.
I think about oppression, right, because that's what we face
(11:08):
every day, yeah, every day, yeah, because if you could, you can
be in a good job, right, andyou're doing great things and
that other person, where that'snot black, is doing putting out
less effort, and they arerecognized as if.
And then, with you being ablack person.
(11:29):
Nothing much is said.
Yes, you know, I agree, right,because black people, we in a
whole, we work hard.
You, we work very hard.
We do work, right, we were allright.
Yes, and we have.
We have that thing called thatrespect.
Yes, I think you know.
Yes, so there's so much.
There's so much our ancestorsand our inventors back.
(11:53):
You know they went through alot.
They went through a lot.
You know there's Harriet Tubman, you know right, yeah, martin
Luther King, malcolm X, marcusGarvey yeah, you know all of
them and all the other inventors, you know that stood up for
(12:15):
something.
So it's not only you know, it'snow.
We're living in this era.
You know, new generation,different mentality.
You know what's disturbing toour children does not?
I don't think they don't eventhink about black history like
that.
They don't take it serious,they don't take it personal,
(12:37):
mm-hmm.
Right.
So black history, yes, but wehave a lot more work to do.
That is true.
A lot more work to do.
You know, being a black woman,it's not easy being black.
I was watching this thing threeblack guys and they were
talking about black history.
They were talking about blackhistory.
(12:58):
They were talking about theracism and stuff like that, and
what our forefathers answered,what they went through.
The person that wasinterviewing asked one of the
questions that what would youwant?
What do you wish as a blackperson?
I wish I was white, to knowwhat it's like to be black.
(13:20):
That's deep, that's strong,that's very deep, right, that's
strong.
So you know, we have a lot ofwork to do, and so celebrating
us, I think, is a beautifulthing.
It is Black is beautiful.
Yeah, we are beautiful people.
We went through a lot.
We went through a lot.
We're still getting through it.
(13:40):
We're still getting through itand we're still going through it
.
We're still trying.
Yep, right, you know this is adiverse country and this and
that, okay, but there's so muchissues, so much problems among
our race, you know.
And so to celebrate is onething, but when the Black
(14:03):
History Month is over, we'restill going back to.
You know what, we know how todo best, and that's just being
our best.
That's it Right.
So what do you think is somelike for celebrating Black
History?
Do you agree that there need tobe like more?
Like more work, of course, likeit should be bigger, much more
(14:25):
bigger, especially in theclasses, especially in the
workforce, right, knowing how tospeak to people.
You know when you're talkingand you're sometimes okay.
For example, some people thatlike to make jokes about
different people's cultures.
They like to make offensiveremarks about a person's race
(14:48):
and think it's funny, it's not.
Those are all trigger points.
Yeah, that's their sensitivitytoo, right.
And even sometimes, when you'retalking we're talking about
Black History Sometimes you'renot interested, you don't want
to hear nothing.
Yes, yes, you know what it'sreally important to get to the
new generation Go into schools,talk about it, even have a race
talk, a race talk session, right.
(15:11):
Or quiz In the jobs in theeducation system.
Yeah, yeah, it is important.
It's very important, especiallyfor individuals who are coming
from you know our town or comefrom a place where they don't
see a lot of minorities, right,they need to know how to talk to
individuals.
(15:32):
They need to learn understanddifferent cultures, different
races.
All of that, yeah, it's veryimportant.
It is, you know, because ifyou're going to be in the social
services career or if you'reinto the medical field, you need
to know how to talk toindividuals.
(15:52):
You need to know how toapproach them, understand them,
right, you need to know.
I think that's really important.
It is, it is, it truly is, andthat's why I do believe that you
know we need to do.
More needs to happen.
Yeah, you know more needs tohappen, but that is the world.
(16:16):
This is the world that we livein, and you know they say the
greatest gift of all is love,and it is so important to
recognize and to remember.
You know who was passed on, whofought.
You know to try to get ourequal rights, for us as black
people, right, and for us torespect and to show love to each
other right, as Martin LutherKing said.
(16:39):
You know he has a dream.
You know what I mean and youknow they all play their role in
trying to have for us blackpeople to have equal rights.
You know freedom, respect andrespect.
You know.
So, yes, so that's all, guys.

(11:08):
every day, yeah, every day, yeah, because if you could, you can
be in a good job, right, andyou're doing great things and
that other person, where that'snot black, is doing putting out
less effort, and they arerecognized as if.
And then, with you being ablack person.
(11:29):
Nothing much is said.
Yes, you know, I agree, right,because black people, we in a
whole, we work hard.
You, we work very hard.
We do work, right, we were allright.
Yes, and we have.
We have that thing called thatrespect.
Yes, I think you know.
Yes, so there's so much.
There's so much our ancestorsand our inventors back.
(11:53):
You know they went through alot.
They went through a lot.
You know there's Harriet Tubman, you know right, yeah, martin
Luther King, malcolm X, marcusGarvey yeah, you know all of
them and all the other inventors, you know that stood up for
(12:15):
something.
So it's not only you know, it'snow.
We're living in this era.
You know, new generation,different mentality.
You know what's disturbing toour children does not?
I don't think they don't eventhink about black history like
that.
They don't take it serious,they don't take it personal,
(12:37):
mm-hmm.
Right.
So black history, yes, but wehave a lot more work to do.
That is true.
A lot more work to do.
You know, being a black woman,it's not easy being black.
I was watching this thing threeblack guys and they were
talking about black history.
They were talking about blackhistory.
(12:58):
They were talking about theracism and stuff like that, and
what our forefathers answered,what they went through.
The person that wasinterviewing asked one of the
questions that what would youwant?
What do you wish as a blackperson?
I wish I was white, to knowwhat it's like to be black.
(13:20):
That's deep, that's strong,that's very deep, right, that's
strong.
So you know, we have a lot ofwork to do, and so celebrating
us, I think, is a beautifulthing.
It is Black is beautiful.
Yeah, we are beautiful people.
We went through a lot.
We went through a lot.
We're still getting through it.
(13:40):
We're still getting through itand we're still going through it
.
We're still trying.
Yep, right, you know this is adiverse country and this and
that, okay, but there's so muchissues, so much problems among
our race, you know.
And so to celebrate is onething, but when the Black
(14:03):
History Month is over, we'restill going back to.
You know what, we know how todo best, and that's just being
our best.
That's it Right.
So what do you think is somelike for celebrating Black
History?
Do you agree that there need tobe like more?
Like more work, of course, likeit should be bigger, much more
(14:25):
bigger, especially in theclasses, especially in the
workforce, right, knowing how tospeak to people.
You know when you're talkingand you're sometimes okay.
For example, some people thatlike to make jokes about
different people's cultures.
They like to make offensiveremarks about a person's race
(14:48):
and think it's funny, it's not.
Those are all trigger points.
Yeah, that's their sensitivitytoo, right.
And even sometimes, when you'retalking we're talking about
Black History Sometimes you'renot interested, you don't want
to hear nothing.
Yes, yes, you know what it'sreally important to get to the
new generation Go into schools,talk about it, even have a race
talk, a race talk session, right.
(15:11):
Or quiz In the jobs in theeducation system.
Yeah, yeah, it is important.
It's very important, especiallyfor individuals who are coming
from you know our town or comefrom a place where they don't
see a lot of minorities, right,they need to know how to talk to
individuals.
(15:32):
They need to learn understanddifferent cultures, different
races.
All of that, yeah, it's veryimportant.
It is, you know, because ifyou're going to be in the social
services career or if you'reinto the medical field, you need
to know how to talk toindividuals.
(15:52):
You need to know how toapproach them, understand them,
right, you need to know.
I think that's really important.
It is, it is, it truly is, andthat's why I do believe that you
know we need to do.
More needs to happen.
Yeah, you know more needs tohappen, but that is the world.
(16:16):
This is the world that we livein, and you know they say the
greatest gift of all is love,and it is so important to
recognize and to remember.
You know who was passed on, whofought.
You know to try to get ourequal rights, for us as black
people, right, and for us torespect and to show love to each
other right, as Martin LutherKing said.
(16:39):
You know he has a dream.
You know what I mean and youknow they all play their role in
trying to have for us blackpeople to have equal rights.
