Yesterday's episode of Atlas Obscura was about Africville, here in Halifax. The mistreatment and destruction of that community and the ongoing failure to make amends for the harm done by those actions are injustices my city still needs to address. The episode does shed light on the beautiful aspects of Africville too, sharing stories of the mutual aid, togetherness, and safety that Africville provided to its residents.
