Set in 1850s New York, "Seneca Village" tells the story of one of the first integrated communities in America: free Black New Yorkers and Irish famine refugees living together on the land that will be taken by eminent domain to build Central Park. The series follows families, preachers, laborers, and local politicians as they argue, hope, and negotiate around an approaching displacement they can feel but cannot fully see.
