⚠️ “The Black Neighborhood They Bulldozed to Build Central Park: Seneca Village”
In this powerful and unsettling historical story, we uncover the forgotten Black community that once stood where Central Park now lies. Long before the park became an icon of New York City, Seneca Village was a thriving neighborhood of free Black homeowners, churches, schools, and working families. In the 1850s, the community was forcibly destroyed—its residents displaced in the name of “progress,” their history buried beneath lawns and walking paths.
This story reveals how race, power, and urban development collided—and how one of America’s most famous landmarks was built on erased lives.
💡 In this video, you’ll discover:
• Who lived in Seneca Village and how the community thrived
• Why the neighborhood was targeted and forcibly removed
• How Central Park’s creation erased Black landownership
• Why remembering Seneca Village still matters today
