For 150 years, Africville, sitting right next to Halifax, was a thriving Black Canadian community.
Halifax refused to provide city services, and eventually forced residents to move as they bulldozed their homes.
This is the story of that community.

True all over Canada. I constantly see people commenting βnot affordableβ every time they see a midrise or highrise building going up - and never ever see them making that comment about a 3000+ square foot single family home.
"So warped are perceptions in Toronto that even progressive folks consider tiny condo apartments, the first rung of the property ladder that people claw their way into, as βluxury,β but homes in the million dollar range or more are somehow not." From @shawnmicallef.bsky.social in 2016 but still true
Torontoβs grudge against apartments: Micallef
Torontoβs 40-year-old Official Plan has vast parts of Toronto where only single detached homes are permitted.

More than 1,400 pending criminal cases in Oregon must be dismissed due to a huge shortage of public defenders, state supreme court ruled.
Many defendants have waited months or years to get a lawyer, a constitutional violation leaving them unable to fight charges, indefinitely derailing their lives.
