“You, as a writer, can write from any perspective, but you need to do it right. And if you don’t – writing is such a brave thing, it’s so hard – if you don’t do it right, I’ll be the one that comes for you.” She laughs. “You’re going to fail often – have people read it, and if you don’t have black people around you to read it, then maybe you’ve got to figure out why that might have happened.”

“Canada is racist: there I said it. My country is racist and its media is racist and its journalists are racist. Not saying it doesn’t make it any less true. Canada is multicultural, yes, that doesn’t mean its media is; the industry that is supposed to inform this country is whitewashed, and its information is whitewashed too. Politically, socially, economically — in every way — Canada misrepresents itself. What results is an entirely misinformed public but, more than that, a public represented by an industry that cloaks itself in white and believes that saying nothing will make it invisible. You’re not invisible. You may not see us, but we see yöu.”
