Wow. Just fucking wow. I really hope those administrators feel really proud of how much good they did. They were so inclusive in their equality training that they bullied a man to suicide. Fucking go them.
They are just going to hide and blame KOJO, even though they support what they say. Nothing will happen to either since he committed suicide. If they get sued, they will just pay and it will go away. Nothing will change.
Yeah, this is very disingenuous. He actually was a racist, and there is no established connection with his suicide. Many racists kill themselves often.
Aside from his work as an educator, Bilkszto was an advocate. He was a member of the Toronto chapter of the Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR), an advocacy organization dedicated to civil rights and anti-discrimination, which he took the lead in establishing. In education specifically, he was a member of SOS TDSB, an organization working to preserve the district’s merit-based admissions system for specialty programs (the TDSB recently began using a lottery system to admit students, to the ire of many).
“Richard Bilkszto was a great man,” read the statement of SOS TDSB. “He contributed so much to the fight for quality education, for fairness and a better school system, and we are all so much poorer for his loss. Our heart goes out to his family, friends, and the thousands of students and colleagues he knew, and loved, and who loved him in return.”
Read the fucking article dude. “Canada is a less racist place than USA” was his whole thing. I am not addressing whether Canada or USA is more racist, but if you are saying one is less racist, you are defending at least one genocide. And when I wake up in the morning and fill my coffee I don’t think “Which genocide would I rather defend today?” because I am not a racist.
His suicide was sad but apart from this right wing nonsense of an article I don’t think there is any connection between his suicide and political beliefs. In fact, I could belief that the paper manipulated his views to be more right wing and ostentatious.

Did you know him personally?
Yeah…He sounds like such a racist.
Proof that he was racist?
