Controversial play will go on in Pointe-Claire despite complaints from Black community
Description
February 15, 2023
The city of Pointe-Claire has given the green light to a children's play that has caused some controversy among residents in the West Island. Some wanted it cancelled because they feel it depicts Black people in a racially problematic manner. But the mayor says after consulting the artist and the Black community, the show will go ahead as planned. Global's Felicia Parrillo reports.
