Join the Village Initiative for a descendant-led tour of the Historic Triangle and surrounding community displaced by the city in the 1970s.
About this Event

Learn about the robust community of business owners and community activists that created a refuge during segregation and fought back against their displacement.

We invite donations of any amount to secure a ticket (from $1.00 and up). All proceeds will support The Village Initiative's work to complete a feature-length documentary film exploring the displacement of The Triangle Block and surrounding community.

You are also invited to join us for a preview of our upcoming documentary film on the Triangle Block community. Get your tickets here.
