President’s Anti-Racism Taskforce (PART)

Racism in health care is a large and complex problem and Sunnybrook recognizes it’s not something that will be solved easily or quickly. The President’s Anti-Racism Taskforce (PART) was established in 2020 to focus on producing tangible and visible results that will have a broad impact.

The taskforce includes members from the hospital, Sunnybrook Foundation, and Sunnybrook Research Institute (SRI).

The input and efforts from these members as champions of anti-racism at Sunnybrook are key to sparking change within our organization, and we thank them for their ongoing efforts as the work of the taskforce continues.

PART’s terms of reference align with the Ontario Health Anti-Racism Framework and the Toronto Region Anti-Racism Framework, with its vision of ensuring structural and systemic change.

PART has developed and is implementing an action plan with specific measures to combat racism and ensure Sunnybrook is an inclusive organization for our staff and partners, our Black, Indigenous, and racialized clients, and all communities we serve.

Sunnybrook staff: You can find more information about PART on Sunnynet.

Thank you to the PART membership and partners for your leadership and your continued dedication toward anti-racism.

Thank you to every member of Team Sunnybrook who is taking daily steps to make Sunnybrook a more inclusive space for all.

With the Indigenous Advisory Committee, PART members celebrated the opening of an Indigenous Wellness Space on Bayview Campus.

This room is available for Indigenous community members and families for meeting and ceremony, and for Indigenous care partners who are onsite to have a space to work or meet with clients. Medicine bundles, a ceremonial drum, and a rattle are available for use within the room and around the hospital.

Honouring the Journey of Wellbeing events and team-based learning

Leonard Benoit, Indigenous Patient Navigator continued to facilitate team-based learning sessions across the organization as part of the program “Honouring the Journey of Well-Being: Smudge and Sharing Circle”. The program is designed to provide a space to learn about Indigenous approaches to wellness, sacred medicines and ceremonial practices, and resources available for support of Indigenous community members at Sunnybrook.

Black History Month

February is Black History Month. Black History Month importantly draws attention to the historical struggle and the continued racism faced by Black people. It can also draw attention to the resilience, strength and joy of Black people. Every year, the President's Anti-Racism Taskforce (PART) and Black History Month committee invite Sunnybrookers to engage in celebration, learning, and reflection by taking part in events and activities organized throughout the month.

In 2023 the Black History Month theme was Black Resistance: Honouring our Stories. The events organized in 2023 included, an African Drumming Circle with Holistic Vibrancy, Two Movement Breaks with Annie B, a Restore: Wellness Clinic on mindfulness/wellness, a PART conversation on Black Resistance, and anti-Black racism workshops for leaders. Staff were also invited to reflect on what Black History Month and Black Resistance means to them, and how they honour their families and stories. Black History Month trivia was highlighted weekly throughout the month with prizes for staff members, and a special menu was developed by Food Services inspired by the cuisines of the Caribbean and East and West Africa.

In 2024, the theme for Black History Month was The Arts: Experience the Cultures. Staff members were invited to learn about how Black artists have used art to preserve history and community memory, and how they use art for various forms for empowerment. Artistic and cultural movements led by people of African descent often set the standard for popular trends around the world. We celebrated the arts with a number of events and activities, including an interactive Caribbean drumming and folk dance performance with the Spice Island Performers, a Restore Wellness Clinic with Ameerah Craigg, an Afro Beats lunchtime Fit Break with Annie B, a PART Conversation with Dwayne Morgan, two time Canadian National Poetry Slam Champion, and a Fireside Chat with Juno award winning R&B artist Jully Black. Black History trivia was once again a weekly feature. A t-shirt design contest raised funds for The Mina Project – an organization focused on breaking down barriers and empowering youth with transformative opportunities to learn about various fields of work.

PART Conversation: Cultural Connection through Food and Tradition

In honour of Jewish Heritage Month and Asian Heritage Month, food historian and writer Lara Rabinovitch and chef Trevor Lui came together to discuss how food connects us, shared food memories, and explored the long-standing tradition of Jews eating Chinese food on Christmas at this virtual event.

Asian Heritage Month

Asian Heritage Month is a time to recognize and celebrate the contributions of members of the Asian diaspora in Canada. It is also a time to acknowledge the challenges and racism that members of Asian communities continue to face in this country.

We recognize those who have journeyed from East Asia, Southern Asia, Western, Central and Southeast Asia, their families and descendants. They bring a rich cultural heritage representing many languages, ethnicities and religious traditions and have contributed in countless ways to life in Canada — through art, sport, food, business, science and medicine, and more.

Anti-Asian racism continues to be prevalent in Canada. Sunnybrook denounces anti-Asian racism and all racism, and we stand in solidarity with Asian communities who are faced with racist attacks and other forms of macro- and micro-aggressions.

The Asian Heritage Month sub-committee of PART developed a resource section for Staff on Asian Heritage. They also hosted an Origami workshop and a Muay Thai and Tai Chi workshop.

Jewish Heritage Month

Jewish Heritage Month is an opportunity to learn about the impact of Jewish heritage in communities across the country, and to appreciate the significant contributions made by Jewish Canadians to the country’s social, political and cultural fabric.

At Sunnybrook, we recognize the Jewish staff, physicians, learners, volunteers, patients and community members and their important contributions to the organization.

A PART conversation with Rivka Campbell which invited staff members to learn about diversity within the Jewish community.

Indigenous History Month

Sunnybrook and PART, together with the Indigenous Advisory Committee marked Indigenous People’s Day and Month with a Sacred Fire.

Emancipation Day

Sunnybrook marked Emancipation Day (August 1) for the first time with events held at three Sunnybrook campuses. This marks the day in 1834 that the Slavery Abolition Act came into effect across the British Empire.

Indigenous and Black people were once enslaved on the land that is now Canada. Those who fought enslavement were pivotal in shaping our society to be as diverse as it is today.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

With the Indigenous Advisory Committee, we marked the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation with a call for staff to renew their personal commitments to Truth and Reconciliation. An event was hosted by Leonard Benoit, inviting staff to learn about the development of The Survivors’ Flag, created by the National Centre of Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Survivors and National Indigenous Organizations. The Survivors’ flag was raised on all Sunnybrook campuses.

Sunnybrook also participated in an orange t-shirt design contest, with proceeds being donated to Toronto Council Fire Native Cultural Centre.

Feast for the Ancestors

Sunnybrook hosted the second annual Feast for the Ancestors: A Sacred Fire. The ceremony, led by Leonard Benoit, the Regional Indigenous Cancer Patient Navigator for Toronto Central, was held to honour our ancestors.

Indigenous Veterans Day and Remembrance Day

In Canada, National Indigenous Veterans Day is held on November 8th to acknowledge the significant contributions of Indigenous peoples to military service, notably during the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

This year, Sunnybrook staff gathered for a beading workshop led by Joanna Diindiisikwe Simmons, special project coordinator in the Pregnancy and Infant Loss (PAIL) Network and Ojibwe artist.

During the session, Joanna guided staff on how to make a beaded poppy for Indigenous Veterans Day and Remembrance Day.

Other 2022 Projects and Events:

Black History Month

The month of February marked Black History Month at Sunnybrook. The theme of this year’s Black History Month was: Black Joy and Wellness. Each year, Black History Month importantly draws attention to the historical struggle and the continued racism faced by Black people; it can also draw attention to the resilience, strength and joy of Black people. The theme asked us all to consider activities, rituals and initiatives that Black communities have practiced in an effort to maintain health and well-being — which we tried to reflect in the events and materials shared this month.

This year the President's Anti-Racism Taskforce (PART) and Black History Month committee invited Sunnybrooker’s to engage in celebration, learning and reflection by taking part in events and activities throughout the month. These events included: Movement Break with Annie B, two podcast listening circles, a Black-owned business market, Restore Virtual Session on mindfulness/wellness, and anti-Black racism workshops for leaders. Staff were also invited to share their moments of Black Joy.

Asian Heritage Month

Anti-Asian racism continues to be prevalent in Canada. Sunnybrook denounces anti-Asian racism and all racism, and we all stand in solidarity with Asian communities who are faced with racist attacks and other forms of macro- and micro-aggressions.

The Asian Heritage Month Subcommittee of PART developed a unit/departmental activity to highlight the different connections we have to countries on the continent of Asia. Maps were distributed/posted to Sunnynet for download and Sunnybrookers could initial or mark where they lived, where their family lives, where they studied and more.

Jewish History Month

Here at Sunnybrook, we recognize the Jewish staff, physicians, learners, volunteers, patients and community members and their important contributions to the organization.

An audit released recently by B’Nai Brith found that the number of Antisemitic violent attacks increased in Canada in 2021 by 700 per cent over the previous year. And we have heard recently in the news here in Toronto about Antisemitic symbols, gestures and slurs being used increasingly by students in schools and at post-secondary institutions.

An all-staff email brought attention to the month and a staff profile on Dr. Ayelet Kuper was posted to social media.

Indigenous History Month

June was National Indigenous History Month and June 21 was National Indigenous Peoples Day. It is a time to celebrate, recognize, learn, reflect, appreciate and honour the history, contributions, cultures and diversity of Indigenous People in Canada. The President’s Anti-Racism Taskforce along with the Indigenous Advisory Council hosted two educational workshops in honour of this month. Resources and training opportunities were shared with staff via Sunnynet and Snapshot.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Sunnybrook staff, volunteers, students and physicians were invited to attend a screening of the film 'Unforgotten', a 2 minutes and 15 seconds of silence and discussion and reflection led by Dr. Mike Anderson and Leonard Benoit of the UHN Indigenous Health Program.

All were once again invited to reflect and consider our individual and collective responsibility to Reconciliation. Commitment Cards were developed in partnership with the Indigenous Advisory Committee. The card invites staff to commit to an action toward reconciliation. Some leaders reflected and share the steps they took to work toward their 2021 commitment.

Staff were also invited to wear orange shirts and to tie an orange ribbon on a tree branch in a quiet moment of reflection.

SunnyBook (Virtual Book Club for staff)

This book club with a social justice focus is registered with Amnesty International. It is a joint project of PART and the Wellness Committee at Sunnybrook.

Like Sunnybrook’s Commitment to Dismantling Racism, PART is using the LEAP framework to measure its action and success. The four components of the LEAP framework will help guide Sunnybrook’s commitment, transformation and vision.

Below and under each of the subcommittee links above, you can find some information about PART’s work over the past year. The highlights mentioned are the work of PART committees, members or allies, and by no means capture each and every equity, diversity and inclusion initiative taking place across the hospital’s campuses. Thank you to every member of Team Sunnybrook who is taking daily steps to make Sunnybrook a more inclusive space for all.

Thank you to the PART membership and partners for your leadership and your continued dedication toward anti-racism.
