What if every member of a community could be both a historian and an architect of their own future? Today, we’re focusing on the Weymouth Falls Community Land Trust in Nova Scotia, a vital initiative dedicated to supporting one of the many Black communities in the area while educating residents about their rich history. We are excited to be joined by Shekara Grant, the founder of the CLT,  who emphasizes the importance of intergenerational connections and community identity.

In our conversation, we’ll discuss:

  • The unique challenges of organizing in a deeply rural context
  • The significance of biannual celebrations in fostering community ties
  • Recent community mapping sessions that highlight Weymouth Falls’ local histories and shape the future of the CLT

How can a community land trust help bridge the past and future for residents in rural areas? Let’s find out!
