Hugh Burnett: Transforming Dresden & shaping civil rights in Canada

We share the story of a man whose fight against racial segregation in Canada in the 50s centred on the small Southern Ontario town of Dresden. Our project Line in the Sand follows the fight that even some Black residents didn't want Hugh Burnett to wage.
