What Happened to the Black Community in Cambridge?

Black History in Action presents a lively conversation with Alyssa Pacy, Archivist at the Cambridge Public Library, Charles Sullivan, Executive Director of the Cambridge Historical Commission, Dr. Kris Manjapra, Executive Director of Black History in Action Cambridge, and members of our community to view and discuss yearly censuses, research especially the effects of redlining, and first-hand community experience of the economic and societal changes that led to the decrease of the black community throughout Cambridge.

Please register for this event, as space is limited. The building and grounds of 159 Brattle Street are not handicap accessible.
