Roger Dundas
Roger Dundas is the publisher and co-founder of ByBlacks.com, Canada's number one online magazine for Black Canadians. A Toronto-based entrepreneur with a background in marketing, PR, and accounting, Roger had a clear vision: build a platform that finally centred Black Canadian stories the way they deserved to be told.
He launched ByBlacks.com in February 2013 alongside his wife and editor-in-chief, Camille Dundas.
Roger's instinct has always been to show up where the community needs support. When the pandemic hit and restaurants across the country were struggling, he launched ByBlacks Restaurant Week in 2021 to spotlight Black-owned food businesses and bring them new customers. He also partnered with One Vision, One Voice in 2019 to develop culturally relevant resources for Black families navigating the child welfare system.
His work has earned recognition at the highest levels. ByBlacks.com has received multiple national ethnic media awards, including the 2017 Innovation Award from the Canadian Ethnic Media Association and a special commendation from former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. In 2016, Roger was honoured with the Black Business and Professional Association's Men of Honour award and was named one of SHIFTER's Top 20 Outstanding Black Men in Canada.
