Introduction


The Black Heritage Project here at Capital has unearthed some amazing information about the formation of the Black community in Hartford that occurred literally at our doorstep. The Nutmeg Pulpit Exhibit in our college lobby by the Main Street revolving doors is a monument to the people of color who stood against oppression in the decades prior to the Civil War and gathered to form a strong and positive community that is a legacy to us and our students. The Nutmeg Pulpit: Hartford's Talcott Street Church and Black Community Formation is a permanent exhibit. This exhibit is available as an in-person experience and a virtual experience.
