Black Nova Scotians
Black Nova Scotians are people of African American descent whose ancestors fled Colonial America as slaves or freemen, and later settled in Nova Scotia, Canada during the 18th and early 19th centuries.〔(Cultural Renaissance | Nova Scotia - Come to life )〕 As of the 2011 Census of Canada, 20,790 black people live in Nova Scotia,〔 most in Halifax, though a large number of Black Nova Scotians have migrated to Toronto, Ontario since the 1950s.〔〔〔(Halifax's Black Loyalists - Halifax Nova Scotia )〕 Nova Scotia has a sizable number of Black Canadians who are descended from freed American slaves.〔The majority of Black Canadians are of Caribbean ancestry, with many of recent African origin and smaller numbers from Latin American countries. Along with Nova Scotia, however, Southwestern Ontario has a sizable number of Black Canadians who are descended from freed American slaves.〕
The first Black person in Nova Scotia arrived with the founding of Port Royal (1605). Black people were then brought as slaves to Nova Scotia during the founding of Louisbourg and Halifax. The first major migration of Blacks to Nova Scotia happened during the American Revolution, where Blacks were fleeing slavery in America. At the same time, educational opportunities began to develop with the establishment of Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (Bray Schools) in Nova Scotia.〔( An account of the designs of the associates of the late doctor bray, 1784, p. 9 )〕〔( Early Schooling of Nova Scotia Black Pioneers )〕 The decline of slavery in Nova Scotia happened in large part by local judicial decisions in keeping the British courts of the late 18th century. The next major migration of Blacks happened during the War of 1812, again Blacks were escaping slavery in the United States. The opportunities for Black Nova Scotians began to open in the 19th century with the creation of institutions such as the Royal Acadian School and the Cornwallis Street Baptist Church. There were further developments in the 20th century with the establishment of the organizations such as Nova Scotia Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission, the Black United Front and the Black Cultural Centre. In the 21st Century, there has been many initiatives in Nova Scotia to address past harms done to Black Nova Scotians such as the Africville Apology, the Viola Desmond Pardon and the restorative justice initiative for the Nova Scotia Home for Colored Children.
