The African Descent Society BC recognizes that we are on the unceded territories of the xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), sḵwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. As many Africans were also displaced from their homeland – and left to forge our own paths – we sympathize and stand in solidarity with our indigenous brothers and sisters. These cultures and traditions have shaped British Columbia and Canada since time immemorial and remain an integral part of our cultural mosaic.
