Hello Hope

The @staysensitized conference served as a reminder that equity work isn’t something we switch on and off — it’s ongoing, intentional, and deeply human. Thank you to @Hellohopecanada for creating space for reflection, learning, and action. As always, I appreciate those like @ms_p_hall for the leadership and conversations that continue beyond. #mmesuperbe #antiracismeducation

@staysensitized Conference 2026 happened in a huge part because of this brother right here. Thanks to my publicist Uthman Quick (aka Manny) @u_quick and @reputation.matters . 9 months ago we started a partnership to touch more hearts and make changes that inspire people. Lots of moves have been made in these last 9 months thanks to your hard work and dedication and availability. Let’s keep building!

It’s been 3 days since @staysensitized conference 2026 and I have so many pictures and so many videos on my phone. I’m gonna take my time posting them one at a time. I’m not gonna do photo collages; I’ll just do one photo with a little caption cause each moment was special in its own way. This picture is a real highlight because this whole conference idea started over sushi with my big sister Dr. Jacqueline Battalora @jacquelinebattalora . She was the one who encouraged me to do a conference and 14 months later it became a reality. Having her in my hometown at a conference that was sponsored in part by my hometown @townofajax and seeing this vision come to fruition was a big honor. The brilliant and selfless @ms_p_hall was the first person I told about my conversation with my big sister Jackie. She smiled and said a simple yet encouraging “I love it! That’s dope.” Grateful for these two amazing scholars and visionaries, two people I learn a lot from, who many of you learned from while they were on the stage, and who encourage me to do all the good that I can to touch as many hearts as I can to make our communities a little bit, sweeter, safer,and stronger. These two epitomize what it means to #StaySensitized. #HelloHope

Miguel Anthony is a storyteller, advocate, entrepreneur, and the kind of person who shows up — on stage, behind the scenes, on the court, and in the community. He's hosting the Stay Sensitized concert. And there's nobody better for it.

Sterling Lee has sat on anti-racism taskforces, advocated at the municipal level, and made history as Ajax's first racialized Deputy Mayor. Stay Sensitized is coming to his town.
