History Folks: Black Newton-Building a Community 10:30 A.M. - 12:00 Noon ZOOM





Black history has always been an integral part of Newton history. We examine the important place of Black Newtonians in our city, from Newton's earliest days through the 21st century. Learn about Black Newtonians' experiences in slavery and freedom, the development of a historic Black community in the 19th century, the impact of redlining and the construction of the MassPike in the 20th century, and the people whose efforts today keep Newton's Black community and history a vital and thriving part of who we are.
