Before Central Park became one of the most famous parks in the world, a thriving Black community stood there. 🙏🏾 In the 1800s, Seneca Village was home to Black landowners, churches, schools, and families building stability in a city that often denied them opportunity. By 1857, the community was forced out so the park could be built. Today millions walk through Central Park without knowing the village that once stood beneath it. 🌳
