Do Black Lives Really matter at a Catholic School in Vancouver Canada?
I am saddened to say today 7 years after I and others participated in a mockery of a Black Man I have come to grips and need to get this off my chest.
In my grade 12 year I was asked to participate in a video shoot that was supposed to be a parody on the infamous YouTube “substitute Teacher Mr Garcy”
The video was shot at my high school Notre Dame Regional School in Vancouver Canada. The person who recruited us to participate in this paradox was a student from St Thomas Moore High School in Burnaby Canada.
My school Notre Same was chosen because the main actor in this paradoy was none other than our school Principal Mr Roger Deslauriers. His son JJ recruited a number of us to be in the video.
For the video Mr Roger Deslauriers used makeup to make himself a Black Face.
Shocking to think that during this time and place this was acceptable. But then again the Roman Catholic Church has been involved in so many tragedies in Canada.
