Black July is an unforgettable part
of Canadian Tamil history.
At a time
when Sri Lankan Tamils were seeking refuge from the violence and
political persecution of Sri Lanka’s Anti-Tamil Pogrom of
July 1983, Canada opened its doors to provide a safe haven.

In
commemoration of its 25th Anniversary, this forum aims to present
an archive of news reports, statements, pictures and testimonials
while providing survivors, families of victims and expatriates from
the 1980's exodus an opportunity to record their story. The collective
effort of Canadians and Tamils around the world will help to sustain
the memories of the victims and the truths of the genocide so that
Black July will never be forgotten.
