[periodic table of Canadian Black history]

Black background. Overall layout is similar to periodic table of elements (Initial, name and number). However, instead of elements, each tile has the name of a Black Canadian, their initial, and the year they were born - plus year of death if applicable. Colouring of tiles is based on their profession, with a legend below the table.

Here's a great learning tool - the Periodic Table of Canadian Black History. 
Each tile highlights a Black Canadian in history. The colours of the tiles indicate the profession -- Activists, Artists, Athletes, Entrepreneurs, etc. Hover over a tile to see a popup with picture and short bio. Click on the tile and a separate window opens with more extensive information about that person.


Orange tile "T Tessa McWatt (1.1.1959-)", Purple tile "C Carrie Best (03.04.1903 - 07.24...)", Yellow tile "A Andre Alexis (01.15.1957)" on dark background
