Hey! Africville was a village, that was built by black slaves that ran away during the War of 1812. It was built in Halifax, Nova Scotia, but then from 1960-1970, the city of Halifax started to destroy their houses. The residents of Africville had to escape during the nights as bulldozers came in through the front and back of their homes. In the end their homes were gone and they had nothing left, no money, clothes, shelter anything.

In the middle of 18 to 1900s, they were treated as slaves.
The cast of Remember Africville - 1991 includes: Delvina Bernard as Narrator
Africville ended because the Government of Halifax (I think) wanted to build a bridge exactly where Africville was. The sad thing was many lost their homes. The best news about it was they gave them new homes. Hope this helps!

The MacKay Bridge is in the north end of the Halifax Penninsula. The Halifax end passes over what used to be the Africville site, but this had been demolished well before the bridge was built.
It was built for the African Nova Scotians, (colored people) because there was still racism back then. It was a slum, which got turned into a memorial after they relocated all of them to build the A. Murray MacKay bridge.
Selina Palmer is considered to be a protagonist. She is found in the novel Last Days in Africville by Dorothy Perkyns.
