As part of the 50th anniversary celebration of BC’s African and African Diaspora Studies Program (AADS), the BlackBC allows online and mobile users to discover and explore black BC’s complex history on campus, in Boston, and in the nation. It mines anecdotal and informal resources as well as BC archives to commemorate the presence and contributions of black BC, and to document how this community participates in Boston’s black communities. The site will continue to be expanded in future semesters in collaboration with students and faculty in the AADS program.
