Abstract	This article introduces the idea of Africentric schools to the Toronto School Board as a counter alternative to promote the idea of including the myriad identities of students in the learning process. The sociological and philosophical tenets of Africentric schooling are presented under the headings of: The Afrocentric Idea; Groundedness in the Community; Social Identities; Spirituality in Learning; and Racial Solidarity is not a Guarantor of Success. In conclusion the discussion highlights courses of action in moving forward to consider ways to strengthen Canadian schooling. (As Provided).
