Black Gotham Experience-Land of the Blacks

February 14, 2022 @ 8:00 AM - March 7, 2022 @ 5:00 PM

Westfield WTC has teamed up with Black Gotham Experience founder Kamau Ware to host the return of their digital exhibition, “Land of the Blacks.” In the 17th century, Lower Manhattan was home to the first Black community in what would eventually become the United States. Black Gotham’s exhibition will utilize digital screens at the Oculus to display graphics, maps and photography that illustrate the 28 different land grants earned by Black people in New Netherland between 1643 and 1663.
