Summary:
"Disaffected with increasingly repressive laws that aimed to curtail their hard-won freedom, a courageous group of
blacks
in California left the state in the 1850s and settled in western Canada, notably on Salt Spring
Island
, a small
island
in the waters near Victoria,
British
Columbia
. Today, direct descendants of the early Black pioneers still reside in the pastoral landscape also hailed as one of the top artist colonies in North America. In recent years, people of African descent from the U.S., the Caribbean, Africa, Europe, the South Pacific Islands, and other regions of Canada have settled on Salt Spring inspiring a renaissance in the
island
's Black heritage. Resplendent with archival and contemporary photos, Every Goodbye Ain't Gone documents the intriguing racial
history
of Salt Spring and, as such, serves as a celebration of the multicultural roots of Canada. Salt Spring
Island
resident Evelyn C. White is the author of Alice Walker: A Life (2004). Joanne Bealy is a photographer/writer who lives on Salt Spring
Island
