The Hidden Black History of Connecticut
Manage episode 294535584 series 2815386
June 19th marks the 156th anniversary of Black emancipation in America. Here in Connecticut there are events around the state to mark Juneteenth - and our state is often seen as being a northern utopia for Black Americans but by the American Revolution, Connecticut had the largest number of slaves of all the New England states. In fact, slavery in Connecticut did not officially end until 1848 - the last state in New England to do so.
This week, Disrupted is looking back at how Black Americans have helped shape Connecticut History.
Disrupted is produced by Catie Talarski, James Szkobel-Wolff, Anna Elizabeth and Zshekinah Collier.
[Correction: An earlier version of this episode reported an incorrect anniversary date for Juneteenth.]
