February is African Heritage Month, a dedicated and intentional time to honour the history, culture, and brilliance of African Nova Scotians.
This year, African Heritage Month embraces the provincial theme, “Legacy in Action: Celebrating Black Brilliance.”
This theme celebrates the enduring legacy of Black Nova Scotians, paying tribute to the community’s resilience, achievements, and impact throughout history. It reflects the brilliance within the community: the stories shared, the lessons passed down by elders, the rhythms that drive progress, and the powerful ability to honor the past while shaping the future.
The theme also aligns with the culmination of the second United Nations’ International Decade for People of African Descent (2025–2034).
Over the past decade, this global initiative has emphasized empowerment, leadership, and increased awareness of the contributions of people of African descent worldwide. The decade’s focus on justice, recognition, and development mirrors the progress and presence of African Nova Scotians in all facets of society.
To kick-off this important month of recognition, Mayor Jodi MacKay welcomed guests from Acadia at Council on January 28, including Lerato Chondoma, the Associate Vice-President: Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Anti-Racism at Acadia University.
Over the next weeks, Town Council will attend a listening session with community members of African descent at Acadia University, to better understand their unique experiences. Then, on February 24, the Town will recognize some historic figures that represent the African Nova Scotian community at Soups and Sides.
Wolfville has also recently established our first Equity and Anti-Racism Advisory Committee. Our work plan, over the next three years, involves providing input on policies relating to street and public space naming, grants to organizations and the development of a statement to recognize the contributions of Black Nova Scotians.
