INDIANAPOLIS — A new “trail” in Indianapolis will highlight the rich heritage of local Black communities. The Indianapolis Black Heritage & Legacy Trail won’t be a physical path but more of figurative one to reconnect black communities.
The Indy Black Heritage & Legacy Trail is funded by an NEA grant and is a community effort spearheaded through collaboration between the Flanner House, Rokh R&D Studio, and KT Austin Arts LLC, project.It will be centered around six different Indy Black neighborhoods, including Norwood, Babe Denny, Haughville, Near Northwest, Near Westside, and Martindale.
Malone says the trail will go beyond the introduction of art in public spaces throughout these neighborhoods. “I think it’s creating a sense of identity,” said Johnson. “Representation matters and when a young person sees someone like themselves doing something great or phenomenal they believe they can do it too.”
