Members of the Guelph Black Heritage Society say they are disheartened after receiving a number of letters and emails expressing hatred towards the southwestern Ontario group.
They say in a post on Twitter that the society, Heritage Hall, president Denise Francis and executive director Kween have all been receiving online threats.

The society says there has been an increase in the severity and frequency of these actions.

He goes on to say that investigations can be initiated by police but there needs to be cooperation on the part of the alleged victim.
