Africatown: Replanting Roots, Rebuilding Community

Africatown: Replanting Roots, Rebuilding Community is bringing organizations together in the heart of Seattle’s historic African American community to strengthen the community’s sense of place in the face of displacement due to historic practices and current gentrification. The project will focus on shaping existing and planned affordable rental housing and commercial development efforts to preserve and restore community connections and economic opportunities for African American/African diaspora community in the King County region.
