The first people there, who OWNED land, who “settled” the place, were Black. Later they were joined by those others. When they refused to get out of the way and sell their land for the stupid Park to be built, eminent domain kicked in, and they were chased off THEIR land by police officers with truncheons, aka billy clubs.

Please do research before you challenge someone who has a master’s degree and has taught the early history of Central Park to thousands of people.

Also I would NEVER advocate Blacks “taking back Central Park.” The place is a burial ground that should be left alone. In the past couple of months, bodies have been found floating in the lake.
