They deserve their community to be rebuilt. Not just lip service.
This apology and a pat on the back is degrading. Nothing can repair the damage (physical, emotional & psychological) that's been done but at the very least they could TRY! rebuild and/or repay them for their loss with over 50 years of interest at that.
What would you suggest?
Vancouver B.C also did the same to its Black Community called Hogan's Alley. Situated in the center of the city, today it would be worth billions. More importantly , the area was the center of Jazz being on the Chitlin Circuit. All the Jazz greats came to Vancouver. Today the city of Vancouver wants it back with some of Canada's largest companies pumping billions into the former location. But it is gone.....forever !
Now is the time to get paid for what they have done to our elders, our community, our land.
What a horrible shame...😔😔😔💜🙏

You seem like a very sweet and sincere person. From now on, if you ever feel discouraged remember a stranger on CZcams believes in you!
As an African American this made me tear up our people have been through so much and done bad over and over again whether in the USA or our descendants/brothers and sisters in Canada. Pray for a better day for all my African American people and descendants ❤💛🖤
Wow love seeing my family ❤❤
they should receive land and money to rebuild a modern-day africville..,and have their own municipal riding, church, school, businesses homes
THIS HAPPENED IN CANADA?????????????????????????????? What exactly did we do to the other humans on this earth? MY GOD????????????
Sure it happened in Canada! You've been listening to nothing but propaganda up til' now.
The current government finally decided to listen to the stories of some minorities and seems to have agreed to uncover at least a few of the historical lies and atrocities of Canada!
Fam we done did a lottttta shit 😂
APOLOGY HELL!!! WHAT ABOUT REPARATIONS?
Wow , I have to visit . 🙏🏿
Tell this story over and over. Africville was gentrified under the guise of lies...
I continue to feel your pain.
The descendants are owed reparations.
Wow, so sad....The church and an apology is cute and all, but can they have their home back?
Also, the reporter didnt seem to have had a shred of remorse or empathy in her tone or body language, just sad.
So sad for them this never should have been allowed to happen. The Queen gave them this land.
I was in Halifax in 2007 and many a white person bragged about how most Black folks have left and that Halifax was now mostly white, and Scottish. I swore I would never return to Halifax. I was so disgusted by the racism I witnessed.
Very dirty thing done to good people
I love myself africaville it’s literally where my day 1s at
Imagine Canada has some really dark past!! AFRICVILLE 🙌🏿💯
Black Americans and Black Canadians

The interviewer is just cold as an ice just shame on your lier media. It's hell on earth continue to be the media lady know current situation. I hope one day they pay for their action from God one way or another. They can't change they won't change only circumstances hardship will change them. Those days are getting closer and closer.
Not "isolated" but a distinct "Collective" with a distinct ethnic mix - Afro-Abo-Euro admixture i.e., ...
Autochthonous Americans
