In this episode, I interview Akilah Newton, the CEO of Big Dreamers, an all-ages activity book and an organization that celebrates Canadian Black History through educating and engaging students in tours around the nation that is based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
In our conversation, Akilah and I discuss the people that have influenced her to start Big Dreamers, how she started a non-profit that offers performing arts training (singing, theatre, music) to youth in Montreal, and her incredible project Beyond February, a web series that focuses on the lives of ordinary Black Canadians that have done extraordinary things.
