The son of a Jamaican father and a Quebecois mother, Balarama Holness spent his earliest, most formative years in West Virginia, learning the principles of equity and austerity, which would guide him through life. It wasn't until he returned to Montreal at age ten that he encountered virulent racism for the first time. Committed to reshaping society as we know it, he uses lessons from his own life to teach others about racism past and present, and to help people better understand how human beings should live and how to build a truly peaceful and just society for our children.
