This is why we push for DEI, it isn't a panacea, but an acknowledgment that Black children & their parents are often ignored & excluded. For those anti-DEI folks, this is why your arguments are hollow. Anti-Black racism is real, our trauma is real & this incident isn't isolated.

If @PeelSchools removed books like they do in Florida, that is terrible! @AlexpiersonAMP seems to suggest that some folks pushed for this! Blame the Board & not the folks pushing for equity. All books must be made available in schools. Whether we promote them is a separate topic.
The community is still waiting for the naming of the Kola Iluyomade Center of Excellence. @davidgreen91 pls respond to @Sflecce letter.
BOOM! To @PeelSchools - Firing people who have the ability and willingness to embed equity into policy making is NOT the way forward.

🚨 Urgent Notice 🚨 Over the course of the last 4-5 years, our family has endured relentless slander from three to four online accounts that deceitfully pose as local School board activists. 1/3
To those responsible, if you possess even an ounce of courage, stop hiding behind fictitious names and face the consequences of your actions. Let truth and accountability prevail. #DefendOurFamily @timvining @IOrughu @TrusteeMcDonald @Sflecce @AdvocacyPeel
The timing of AD Poleen Grewal's termination looks like scapegoating. Why suddenly fire someone for actions of over two years ago based on a witch hunt investigation? @Sflecce @PDSBDirector

What happened here? And why? The allegations here are extremely disturbing @PDSBDirector @IOrughu @TrusteeMcDonald @IOrughu @JeffClark1969 @Sflecce it feels like revenge against a woman who herself faced mistreatment @PeelSchools for trying to do her job thepointer.com/article/2023-0…
@AdvocacyPeel I stand by my daughter, Poleen Grewal, who served the community with dedication as the Associate Director of Equity at Peel District School Board. She has an important story to share, shedding light on her experience. As a family, we are committed to seeking truth and justice.

The performance metrics are the Directives & failure by the Board to abide by them, is perfomative.
That is very deserving and worthy of this distinction. @Sflecce you took over @PeelSchools over anti-Black racism, nothing could be more anti-Black than the refusal to name the Centre after Kola Iluyomade. @PDSBDirector reneged in her promise to the community to honor the agrmt
Here is a quote from @PeelSchools . " Peel District School Board celebrate #BlacHistoryMonth. Every February and beyond we reflect, honor and celebrate the achievements of Black Canadians and the influence of Black culture around the world" Yet, refused to honor a Black man
Here is the video of @PDSBDirector announcing the naming of the Centre of Black Excellence after Kola Iluyomade. @Sflecce, @DrGreen590 & co sabotaged this agreement. This is why the black community does not trust the leadership of the Board Their words mean nothing!
Directive 18 supports @PeelSchools to name the Centre after Kola Iluyomade. Why is the Board refusing? In all of our engagements with the Board, it was referred as such. @DrGreen590 has allowed is dislike for Kola & community members impede is judgements. @Sflecce @dbanner16

Thankful to have jon kay or one of his sidekicks reliably demonstrate why my work is needed.
more pearls of wisdom from Toronto Star “social & racial justice columnist” @ShreeParadkar
Teaching from an equity lens is different from banning books. And @PeelSchools should not be selective in the implementation of Directive 10. The community is still waiting for the naming of the Kola Iluyomade Center of Excellence. @davidgreen91 pls respond to @Sflecce letter.
If @PeelSchools removed books like they do in Florida, that is terrible! @AlexpiersonAMP seems to suggest that some folks pushed for this! Blame the Board & not the folks pushing for equity. All books must be made available in schools. Whether we promote them is a separate topic.
BOOM! To @PeelSchools - Firing people who have the ability and willingness to embed equity into policy making is NOT the way forward.
@howardknopf Possibly. Maybe the PDSB shouldn’t have fired their Associate Director of Equity because she was advising them on wise policy approaches to equity, and not arbitrarily banning books.

@AdvocacyPeel It’s also untruthful to editorialize that @PeelCAS is an equitable organization without sharing the background that Black and Indigenous children are far more likely to face investigations and be removed from their families.
Why would the @PDSBDirector Rashmi Swarup send this out to @PeelSchools parents where 87% of students are racialized &historical targets of @PeelCAS! This is irresponsibleand reinforces the conveyor belt of Black Children from school to CAS! @1vision1voiceCA where is your voice?!
To those responsible, if you possess even an ounce of courage, stop hiding behind fictitious names and face the consequences of your actions. Let truth and accountability prevail. #DefendOurFamily @timvining @IOrughu @TrusteeMcDonald @Sflecce @AdvocacyPeel
