== Personal life ==
Hamilton grew up in Beechville, a community founded by the Black Refugees from the War of 1812, located west of Halifax, Nova Scotia.〔 She was the second youngest child of six to Gerald and Marie Hamilton. Gerald was a labourer and Marie was a teacher in segregated schools.〔 As a child in Beechville, Hamilton attended a segregated all-black primary school and then switched to a non-segregated high school outside of her community. In this non-segregated school, Hamilton experienced what she called a “very alien environment.”〔 For example, the history of black people was absent from school textbooks throughout her years in high school and university. Hamilton went elsewhere to find a supportive black community and found it in the African Baptist church. It was in this encouraging setting she was able to learn and cultivate public speaking skills, which she later used to spread her own experiences and those of others. She was the first person from Beechville to graduate from high school.〔 She earned post-secondary degrees, namely a BA from Acadia University, an MA from Dalhousie University and has been awarded three honorary degrees from Saint Mary’s, Dalhousie and Acadia Universities.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= )
