The Federal Building plaza, with views of the Alberta Legislature, has a new name: the Violet King Henry Plaza. They deepen Alberta's understanding of its Black history and the people who helped build this province. The minister of Culture, Multiculturalism and Status of Women, Leela Aheer, unveiled the new plaza name on Friday, days before the end of Black History Month. "Violet King Henry's courage and perseverance stand as an example to us all," Madu said. "With every event, festival and gathering held at Violet King Henry Plaza, we will be keeping her extraordinary legacy alive."
