'5 Boros to Freedom' CelebrateS New York's African American History

This event has already passed.  Stay in touch to keep up to date, and support the project.
​
5 Boros to Freedom
 looks to celebrate the themes of self-reliance, supporting others, self-assertion, and community through a variety of program offerings in each of the five boroughs on June 5-16, 2019, including at the Hunts Point Slave Burial Ground. 

Join us for Remember the Forgotten- A Walking Tour of the Hunts Point Slave Burial Ground on Saturday, June 8, 2019, from 12:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m.  This family friendly tour begins at PS 48, the Joseph Rodman Drake School (1290 Spofford Avenue, Bronx NY 10474) and ends at Drake Park.

5 Boros to Freedom was initiated by the Underground Railroad History Project of the Capital Region, and seeks to link yesterday to today so that we can build a better tomorrow.  5 Boros to Freedom extends the outreach and connects the transformative impact of the Underground Railroad History Project of the Capital Region into New York City's five boroughs.
HPSBG is an educational project housed in PS 48, an NYC public school. Transform Learning About History to Doing Something About History
