Every February, CUPE honours a Black ancestor, or someone who is making history today. Black History Month is a time to celebrate and highlight Black History and culture, and to honour the ancestors and leaders of Black communities, their accomplishments and their continued fight for liberation.

This year we’re honouring Carol Wall.

Carol Wall was a fearless Black feminist and union leader. She dedicated her life to dismantling barriers, confronting inequality, and inspiring people to engage in courageous, transformative conversations. 

Together, let’s educate one month, and celebrate every month.
