Washington Black - From Cane Fields to Cold Harbour
Escape is only the first chapter. Halifax turns the page. The port that as soon as provisioned sugar plantations relearned itself as a waypoint to freedom. The story of Africville-- its church, its seniors, its erasure-- asks Canada to keep in mind totally. Within this arc, Barbadian migrants helped construct a contemporary nation: literature that listened, celebrations that expanded the frame, politics that consisted of the left out. Austin Clarke, Cameron Bailey, Anne Cools-- names that represent lots of. The teaser raises us; the history lands us.
Watch now and check out the history behind the escape.
