Im genuinely so concerned about living in Alberta as a POC during these times.
Im not sure if ppl are not aware or forgot but when trump initially got elected 4 yrs ago, we saw a massive spike on hate crimes committed by a lot of white supremacist groups. please be safe everyone.

the province with the most hate crimes within Canada is Alberta.
bear in mind, I will go on a limb & even claim (allegedly) that a large chunk of hate crimes go unreported.
^this assumption is based off personal experiences as well as experiences others have shared with me.

if you have the time, I would highly recommend reading this short article on the increase of hate crimes here in Alberta. https://dailyhive.com/calgary/hate-crimes-decrease-across-canada-increase-alberta
here’s a link to statistics Canada which is what the article above used.
mind you, they only have statistics available for the years 2014-2018.
trump got elected in January of 2017.

this little thread was just to show those who weren’t aware about the rising hate crimes within our province & within our own city.
this thread was also a reminder/warning for all Black people & POC so we can all take extra precautions to stay safe & protect one another.
