Shining Light on Truth: New Haven, Yale, and Slavery

Join a tour of the dynamic new exhibition of Yale and Connecticut history at the New Haven Museum. Curated and designed by New Haven-based alumni, Shining Light on Truth presents evidence of the essential role of enslaved and free Black people in New Haven and at Yale. It celebrates Black resistance and community building, and it illuminates knowledge kept alive in archives and memory for more than three centuries—even when the dominant culture chose to ignore, bury, or forget.
