Summary:
Have you heard of No. 2 Construction
Battalion
? It is never too late to learn about No. 2 Construction
Battalion
, also known as the
Black
Battalion
. In the First World War, when so many brave young men enlisted to fight, there were many
Black
men who wanted to join, but many were denied. Instead, the
Black
Battalion
was created. A labour unit that helped cut the lumber and mill the logs. These men were still soldiers, and they served Canada proudly. It is up to us to
remember
their contributions, along with those of other soldiers, during Remembrance Day, and all year long. This free-verse poem about
Black
Canadian soldiers introduces topics like racism and discrimination, in an easy-to-digest format suitable for young readers. A glossary and reflection questions section help educators, parents and caregivers engage with children on the issues raised in
