The Black Coalition of Quebec (BCQ) is a human rights organization dedicated to protecting the rights of black peoples in the province of Quebec. Formed in 1969, the organization works to combat racial profiling and discrimination and seek justice and equality for Quebec’s black population. They also offer a free legal clinic to help victims of discrimination and a Youth Employment Integration program to help Black youth find meaningful and gainful employment.
The current President, Max Stanley Bazin, sent B’nai Brith Canada the BCQ’s 2023 Proclamation, and we are grateful for their support of Jewish Heritage Month. We also note the many contributions that the BCQ’s past President, Dan Phillips, has made to the organization during his 40-year tenure as President.
