REAPING WHAT YOU SOW AT RYERSON

Parada is an associate professor at the Ryerson University School of Social Work who, until recently, was also the school’s director.
He stepped down from that post earlier this month amid heated allegations of anti-black racism — in particular “misogynoir,” the sort aimed at black women. 
Parada’s sin was to allegedly walk out of an anti-racism meeting when a young black female colleague was either speaking or being applauded. No one appears much interested in finding out what led him to leave the room, and the group spearheading the demands for him first to step down (done) and apologize (not done), the Black Liberation Collective at Ryerson, appears to consider such questions to be racist.
