Flooded Histories: Over 200 Black Towns Destroyed in America| Black History
Discover the hidden history behind over 200 Black towns in America that were deliberately destroyed and flooded to make way for lakes, reservoirs, and dams. These thriving communities, built after emancipation, symbolized resilience, success, and hope but faced systematic erasure through forced displacement and environmental racism. In this video, we uncover the untold stories of these lost towns, explore how systemic racism shaped their destruction, and reveal the lasting impact on Black wealth and culture. Join us as we bring these forgotten histories to light and honor the legacy of those who built them.
