Biography

McKenzie was born in Southall in West London to Vida Louise McKenzie and Arthur McKenzie who immigrated to the UK from the Caribbean in the late 1950s.  He attended Villiers High School, London and then Southampton University Medical School.

McKenzie was appointed as the CEO of the Wellesley Institute in May of 2014.[1]

He served as Chair of the Council of Canadian Academies’ panel on Mental Health and Medical Assistance in Dying,[2] Chair of the Health Equity External Advisory Committee at Health Quality Ontario and was appointed Commissioner at the Ontario Human Rights Commission in June 2016.[3] He is also a Medical Director of Health Equity at the Centre for Addition and Mental Health

McKenzie was a presenter on All in the Mind on BBC Radio 4, and has previously been a columnist for The Times and The Guardian newspapers in the UK, writing on issues of health, racism and equity,[4] as well as being a frequent guest on Canadian radio and television.

In 2005 McKenzie wrote an article in The Times, UK about racial stereotyping in the 2005 film King Kong, co-written, produced, and directed by Peter Jackson. In the piece titled, [https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/big-black-and-bad-stereotyping-bfp57hdjdsm "Big black and bad stereotyping"], McKenzie described it as feeding "into all the colonial hysteria about black hyper-sexuality."[5] The article received such a strong response from readers that McKenzie and The Times issued a challenge asking the public to find positive black images on television during the holiday season.[6]
