SUMMARY:Hartford History Lecture Series "A Black Ecological Return to Charter Oak Terrace"
DESCRIPTION:FEATURING \nChannon Miller\, Assistant Professor of American Studies and History\, Trinity College \nAs much as water protects\, nourishes\, and sustains Black children’s lives\, it also restrains\, suffocates\, and degrades them. The residents of Hartford’s Charter Oak Terrace confronted a water-based ecological catastrophe in the 1960s. A flooding river—channeled by municipal neglect\, class inequality\, and racial segregation—drowned several children. The neighborhood’s mothers forged the Association of Concerned Parents of Charter Oak (ACP) and demanded that the city halt the nearby highway construction that propelled the river’s overflow. Dr. Miller will excavate the unwritten history of the Black women-led ACP and chronicle an early rendering of a local environmental justice movement. \nThis event is FREE and open to the public. \nFor more information or to inquire about special accommodations please call(860) 522-6766. \nTo reserve your seat\, click here: https://bit.ly/HartfordHistory2024 \nThe 2024 Hartford History Lecture series is supported by funding through CT Humanities in alignment with the America 250 | CT Commission. Special thanks to our partners at the Hartford Heritage Project and UCONN Department of History.
