New Bedford Guide Your Guide to New Bedford and South Coast, MA
“We took this photo last year, just as plans were about to make a dramatic shift in how we serve the city.
New Bedford has such a rich history and our department is such an important part of it. We plan to get back to this amazing Frederick Douglass commemorative mural next year to update the photo and continue honoring the lives of the many men and women of black heritage who proudly serve this city.
We are so proud of them and proud to be from New Bedford!
