My Hometown can be Disgusting

A celebration of the black history of a former town in Halifax was marred by the discovery of racist graffiti throughout the park hosting the event.

As former residents of Africville and their descendants set up tents and trailers in Seaview Park for the annual event, they discovered at least five picnic benches with disturbing messages scrawled across them.

“Seaview park belongs to Whites,” one read, while another said, “Kill all black children.”
