August 1 in Canada is cause for a joyous occasion:  Emancipation Day! Before You Go was honored to hear all about the journey to commemorating the freeing of enslaved people from Rosemary Sadlier OOnt (Order of Ontario), a champion of African Canadian education for Canadian residents. Just like crusader Opal Lee's efforts pushed national holiday status for Juneteenth in the United States, Sadlier spent a lifetime bringing  African Canadian history to national recognition.Unlike the United States and South America, slavery was abolished across the British Commonwealth (which includes Canada) in 1834.Sadlier, a prolific author and past president of the Ontario Black History Society, easily recalls fascinating details of historical figures such as Mary Ann Shadd, Harriet Tubman and more. Our Emancipation Day lesson gives wonderful insight to the activities of our neighbors to the north.This episode premiered on KBLA Talk 1580 in Los Angeles, CA.

If you don't know that much about jazz, you may be surprised to hear that the greatest jazz piano player ever was a Canadian - Oscar Peterson, who lived a good chunk of his life in Mississauga, Ont. "Oscar Peterson: Black + White" is a new documentary about the piano man often described as "Canada's gift to the world." Steve Paikin talks to filmmaker Barry Avrich, and Rosemary Sadlier, a former president of the Ontario Black History Society. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By creating his own opportunites and opening doors and opportunites for others, George Randolph has carved a winding transformational journey in dance through musical theatre and beyond. From the hallowed halls of Hampton University to the world-class stage of the Alvin Ailey Repertory Ensemble, George Curtiss Randolph Jr has always attributed his unwavering self-belief to a blessed upbringing in Red Bank, NJ. Upon wrapping his principal role with Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal, George pivoted from performance to producing, opening the iconic Randolph Dance Theatre and staging the 'T.O Hot Shoe Show', a smash featuring an international collection of dance giants from around the world. Beyond celebrating the work of industry masters, George looked to cultivate the skillset diversity of those simply studying to make it. Inspired by what could be, George challenged existing academic modules by introducing Canada to the Triple Threat Training method in 1992, housing its study in his beloved Randolph College for the Performing Arts. To this day, the program remains unrivalled, primarily due to it's innovative approach and progressive outreach. More recently, the RCPA founder's industry achievements have co-produced the CSA award-winning documentary ‘Unsung: Behind the Glee', national singing competition ‘Show Choir Canada', and a ground-breaking curriculum collaboration with Middle East arts jewel, Stardust Academy (Amman, Jordan). And while his efforts and leadership have been honoured by The Ontario Black History Society, Dance Immersion, Harbourfront Centre and Toronto Alliance for the Performing Arts, George continues to be most humbled by the army of actors, directors, producers, recording artists and choreographers that continue to share his legacy on stage and screen, world wide.
