To help offer that support and lobby for efficient anti-racism education, Vangool said the province needs a BIPOC teachers association. She said the group would be similar to the Black Teachers Association of Alberta (BTA), which had 50 members as of January. However, Vangool said the association in Saskatchewan would expand to other people of colour due to a lack of Black teachers in the province. Vangool said the association would also offer support to teacher assistants and families of students. Vangool is currently in the process of seeing how much interest there is from other BIPOC teachers in the province to start an association.
