The once-thriving African-Canadian community of Africville in Halifax, Nova Scotia, was brutally uprooted in the 1960s, with homes demolished in the name of urban renewal and integration. Over two decades later, the site has been reduced to a barren park, yet former residents and their descendants still bear the scars of that painful relocation.
