Welcome to episode 3 of Season 3 of the I Am Black History podcast brought to you by InTheBlack:Canada (ITBC) and DeeP Visions Media. I interviewed Zachariah during our across Canada trip during the summer of 2022. Zachariah is Afro-Indigenous and was born on July 10, 1998 in Thunder Bay Ontario. His mother was also born in Thunder Bay and his father was born in Mogadishu, Somalia. During our conversation, Zachariah talked about growing up Black and Indigenous, the racism he faced in hockey, and his experience as one of the organizers of the Anti-Black Racism rally that took place in Thunder Bay in 2020.
