Did you know that the last segregated school in Canada closed in 1983 and was located just outside of Halifax? Join the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia at the historic Camp Hill Cemetery for an engaging conversation about the history of segregation in Nova Scotia. During the walk, we will explore the notion that Camp Hill Cemetery exists as a tangible record of both our shared history of segregation, as well as the ways we remember and carry on the spirit of those who fought for a better world. All are welcome!Starting location: Camp Hill Cemetery
End location: Camp Hill Cemetery
Accessibility notes: This walk will happen in Camp Hill Cemetery. We will mostly stick to gravel paths, but at some points we will veer off onto the grass to visit specific gravesites. There are no hills but paths are rocky. The closest public washroom is at the Halifax Professional Centre on Spring Garden Road (5-10 min walk). The tour will be conducted in English.
