THE BLACK COMMUNITY NEW YORK ERASED They walk through Central Park every day… but almost no one knows what New York destroyed to build it. Seneca Village wasn’t a slum. It was a thriving Black community families, churches, schools, landowners erased by force and buried under a park the world celebrates. They didn’t disappear. They were removed. And the city wrote them out of the story. We don’t glorify violence. We reveal truth so history can’t repeat itself. | Gloria Velez
