The Alex Breanne Corporation has collaborated with UCFS Healthcare, the Norwich NAACP, the Norwich Historical Society and Public Art for Racial Justice Education (PARJE) to unveil a new mural celebrating a formerly enslaved man named Primus.
Primus’s story spans generations. His son served in the Revolutionary War, and two of his second great-grandsons served in the Civil War—one of whom is memorialized on the 29th Connecticut Colored Regiment Monument in New Haven.
This will be a storytelling mural, tracing Primus’s path to America and celebrating his life, as well as the military service of his descendants.
