Tracy Paulotte is Manager of Programs and Outreach at the Fondation Dynastie. Her experience in project management and her passion for television production have led her to take part in projects and initiatives aimed at encouraging the professional development of people from Black communities in the media, arts and culture sectors. Guided by a desire to forge links between institutions and our communities, Tracy remains committed to contributing to the cultural landscape, one well-crafted project at a time.
I was absolutely inspired by Claire Prieto’s Older, Stronger, Wiser. It’s an incredibly enlightening documentary that tells the untold stories of five Black women whose dedication to uplifting their communities in farming, activism, education or faith left a profound mark on those they encountered. Each woman is a testament to the power of sisterhood, determination and community. Their stories remind me that each of us can actively contribute to enriching the vibrant legacy and history of Black Canadians. - By Tracy Paulotte
