American Graveyard, a feature-length documentary, will tell the sweeping story of Black history in America—beginning with a single cemetery on Staten Island, NY. The interred in this burial ground—which was destroyed in the 1950s—represent a population of free and formerly enslaved people from New York and New Jersey, and as far away as Virginia and the Carolinas. Through on-camera interviews, rare archival footage and photographs, letters, and courtroom testimonies, American Graveyard will uncover history that has been hidden for centuries.
