Eddie
Carvery you have been so tenacious in your quest for justice for the past
residents (black people) of Africville, dated as far back to 1749. Yes indeed,
Nova Scotia has so much History before the Civil War, matter of fact, Nova
Scotia was the last stop on the Underground Railroad.
It is
astounding, Africaville classified (oral) founding of Halifax and Canada’s
oldest indigenous black settlement. Why were North American countries so eager
to destroy thriving black communities (farmlands, markets and dockyards)? The
Community of Africaville was building vastly in the 60's, with 80 different
families and population of approximately 400.
Halifax
did a disservice to the taxpaying residents of Africaville, imagine no sewage,
paved roads or running water. People in Africaville community were treated like
HOGS. Between 1915 and 1955 the audacity of the City moving slaughterhouses and
city dump to the area. That alone within itself spoke volume.
And you
Mr Carvery, deserve the utmost respect and applause for your resilience in pursuit
for justice. Kudos! To you sir # RESTITUTION
NOW.
