Black Heritage Trail

Last Friday, we went to trip as usual, the Black Heritage Trail.



The Black Heritage is a path in Boston, Massachusetts, winding through the Beacon Hill neighborhood and sites important in American black history.
In 1783, Massachusetts became the first U.S. state to declare slavery illegal — mostly out of gratitude for black participation in the Revolutionary War. Subsequently, a sizable community of free blacks and escaped slaves developed in Boston, settling on the north face of Beacon Hill, and in the North End. Boston was long considered a desirable destination for southern black slaves escaping slavery via the Underground Railroad.



This trip let me know more about the freedom of Black and the Civil War. Also, this can help me know more about the American culture. This is very important because this had become a part of the culture of America.



I like this trip and it helped me a lot.
