Black Settlers of Alberta and Saskatchewan
Project Details
The Black Settlers of Alberta and Saskatchewan (BSAS) is a website of historical importance not only to descendants of the Black Settlers, but those wanting to better understand the history of Alberta and the role the Black Settlers played in establishing Alberta and Saskatchewan in the early part of the 20th century.
BSAS will archive and document material to educate, promote and officially recognize the historic role Black Settlers played in pioneering the lands that would become Alberta and Saskatchewan. For more than 100 years, Blacks have lived, worked and contributed greatly to the prairie provinces now known as Alberta and Saskatchewan.
