In 2024, an 18-member KPE Black History Month (BHM) working group – composed of staff, faculty and students – worked collaboratively to illuminate Black Canadian history in sport and physical activity.
The result was the Black History Here & Now virtual tour, a unique experience connecting visitors to virtual presentations of Black Canadian accomplishments and experiences in sport and physical activity.
This year, on February 18, 19 and 20, visitors will have the opportunity to take a guided walking tour through KPE’s sport and recreation spaces to reflect on how these environments connect to the experiences of Black Canadians and movement.
Departing from the Athletic Centre lobby at 12 pm, the tours will stop at various locations in the Athletic Centre and Varsity Centre, with tour facilitators highlighting their history and place in Black Canadians lives past and present.
