An ambitious initiative that will amplify community narratives, spotlight Black history, and engage audiences
This exciting digital project led by the Black Legacy Collective (BLC) in partnership with Capital Heritage Connexion (CHC), brings the rich history of 19th-century Black life in Canada to you through an interactive and accessible digital platform. It showcases the migration, resilience, and contributions of Black communities in provinces and territories. Featuring archival photographs, oral histories, short video interviews, and interactive maps, the project immerses you in stories of perseverance and community-building. Designed for students and educators, and accessible to the public, the platform offers school-friendly educational resources and stories that link the past to today. With a focus on being inclusive and accessible, the project ensures these important narratives are open to all, helping to build understanding and appreciation for Canada’s diverse heritage. Explore a digital museum that honours the legacy of Black Canadians and inspires a stronger connection to the shared history that shapes us all.
