Fighting Dark is an Audio Walking Tour and Video that Explores NYC’s 1863 Race Riots and the Power of Black Resilience
Kamau Ware, commissioned by The Shed, created this audio and video (includes closed captioning and PDF transcript) tour
Within this historiography, Fighting Dark speaks to a dark side of American history as well as the dark-skinned people who have been impacted by it, especially the Black New Yorkers who fled in the dark of night during the 1863 riots and those who enlisted in the Union Army during the Civil War in what was called the “Colored Troops 20th Infantry” from New York City. The tours ultimately provide a platform to draw out lessons on how Black people find resilience in the face of racial violence.
