Atlantic Black Box is committed to expanding the field of historical recovery. We empower communities throughout the Northeast to research and reckon with the region’s active role in colonization and slavery while recentering the stories of its historically marginalized groups. Burying New England’s history of racial violence and oppression was the work of many hands. We believe it will take just as many hands to uncover the truth and to build a culture of repair. Our organization provides communities with the tools, resources, and support needed to recover and make sense of suppressed history through public programming, research assistance, community dialogue, place-based education, artistic expression, and advocacy. Our organization is committed to long-term, systemic change that promotes justice, builds power, and creates a positive impact for the communities it serves. We believe that a collective commitment to surfacing, acknowledging, and redressing the harms caused by racism and settler colonialism can progressively move our communities toward healing and justice.
