On 31 March, 2011, the SPACE Initiative organised an event where Dr. Joseph Mensah, geographer at York University, could launch the second edition of his highly reharded work which chonicles the experiences of African Canadians. With the students from the African Caandian History course at York in attendance, Dr. Mensah outlined the updates and additions to this work and fielded questions from the students and others in attendance. Since the students had read the book for their course, the discussion was lively and informed.
