In honour of Black History Month, join us for a screening of the documentary Union Street by Jamila Pomeroy. This documentary showcases the history of Vancouver’s Hogan’s Alley, a historically Black neighbourhood that was destroyed by the construction of the Georgia viaduct in the 1970s. It highlights the racial injustices that Black communities in Vancouver have faced and the efforts by Black Vancouverites to rebuild the community. This documentary is open to all ages.
