Canadian Turning Points Series

This 12 × 18 inch full-colour poster tells the story of Viola Desmond, a Nova Scotia businesswoman whose act of defiance became a pivotal moment in Canada’s civil rights history. In 1946, Desmond refused to leave a whites-only seating section in a theatre in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia.

Her arrest and conviction exposed the realities of racial discrimination in Canada and helped inspire future civil rights advocacy.

Combining historical imagery, a timeline of key events, and reflection prompts, the poster highlights how one individual’s courage helped challenge injustice and advance equality.

Ideal for:

• Black Canadian history education
• library civil rights displays
• social justice programming
• Black History Month exhibits
