Washington Black -
A boy rises-- Barbados diminishing below, Halifax widening ahead. Trade as soon as tied these places; conscience did, too. Halifax ended up being a safe harbour for those running from the American South, evidence that geography can discover morality. Africville shows both the strength of Black community and the expenses of forgetting. Throughout years, Barbadian arrivals added rhythm and resolve to Canadian life: Joe Sealy's chords, Oliver Jones's swing, Anne Cools's trailblazing service, Cameron Bailey's curatorial eye. The Atlantic bridge carries more than cargo; it brings character.
