The Black Lives Matter Vancouver Chapter was started in 2016 with the aim of standing in solidarity mainly with our friends and family doing great work in Toronto but also all the other BLM chapters across North America. Our goals are to re-visibilize the Black community in Vancouver and BC after histories of erasure that have occurred here, support the unique struggles of Black folks here such as immigration, housing and cultural connection and continue to celebrate blackness.
