Trailing Change features four changemakers who have impacted Canadian communities (Left to Right: Charles Roach, Dudley Laws, Wilma Morrison, and Walter Perry).

In the background, the imagery symbolizes the work that was, and is, put in by the people who sow seeds of equity, heritage preservation and community to transform injustice. The pathway, represents the long road that it may take. Nothing happens overnight, but along the road we will see things start to bloom incrementally.

At the forefront, Dudley Laws and Wilma Morrison nurture a flower symbolic of the growth and continuity of a progressive community that we hope to see flourish into a dozen more gardens.
