Brockton, MA is located about 25 miles south of Boston.  In 2004 our Liberty Tree,  a sycamore which stood at an Underground Railroad site, had to be taken down.  High Street was then renamed Frederick Douglass Avenue, and promises were made to rehabilitate the area.  In 2014 the street was still  neglected -- but a small sapling grew from the roots of the Liberty Tree.  Inspired by its tenacity, a group of residents reclaimed a small neglected plot on the street and went to work.   Now our neighborhood's Town Green, this garden represents the work we do studying and reflecting on Douglass's work; building community with beauty, on our neighborhood streets and within ourselves!
