Blkline is a creative collective that aims to empower and elevate BIPOC Creators within the creative industries. They are dedicated to highlighting the exceptional talent of diverse creators within North America & the UK, who often face limited opportunities, recognition, and influence in the field. By promoting their voices on a global scale, Blkline strives to position Canada, The Caribbean and the United Kingdom as leaders in showcasing and supporting diverse creators in the creative sector - through collaboration, mentorship and opportunity.

▸▸▸ BLACK NORTH INITIATIVE◂◂◂

Founded in 2020 by Dr. Wes Hall, the BlackNorth Initiative was born out of a critical need to address and dismantle the systemic barriers faced by Black Canadians. Their organization was established with a pledge to foster a Canada where systemic anti-Black racism does not exist, and to create opportunities for Black Canadians to thrive.
