Welcome to episode 1 of Season 2 of the I Am Black History podcast brought to you by InTheBlack:Canada (ITBC), DeeP Visions Media, and a grant from the Canada Council for the Arts. In this episode, meet Charles Jackson who was born in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia and grew up in Regent Park in Toronto, Ontario. Charles shares an interesting story about his ancestors, how his own healing included forgiving his Dad, and his thoughts on how we are doing as Black people. Charles and I are related to Len Paris who was the guest on the very first episode of I Am Black History.
