Welcome to the second season of Africville Forever. In season one we told the story of the destruction of a community, in season 2 we are exploring its rebirth.
For too long, the Africvillian survivors and descendents have been divided, hampering our efforts to take back the land and rebuild our unique community. Solutions exist, so we are looking around the world for stories, experts and activists who have helped displaced communities rebuild, in an effort to learn. Speaking to people like MsPaula Gaviria Betancur, Human Rights Lawyer and a Forced Displacement Expert, UN Special Rapporteur and Kavon Ward, Founder of Where Is My Land. We will also be looking inward, speaking to the next generation of Africvillians who are making waves and fighting their own battles in the name of advancement.
So join us as we explore practical, inclusive solutions to unite our people.

In 1969, the last home in the Black community of Africville was flattened. The bulldozer was hired by a city that had schemed to claim this valuable land for generations.
In this series, we tell the story of this unique and beautiful place. Born out of adversity, it thrived as a safe haven for people of African descent in Canada. Back for a second season, we tackle the crucial question: how do you rebuild after destruction?
If you care about racism, displaced peoples and social justice, then you need to know the story of Africville Forever.
