Bryan Stevenson, the founder of the Equal Justice Initiative, gave Alabama News Network an up-close look at new exhibits at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery. alnews montgomeryal mymgm ourmgm alabamanewsnetwork
A major new sculpture and nearly 50 marker monuments that document racial terror lynchings in the U.S. can now be seen. The markers tell the stories of specific lynchings and recognize communities around the country which are making sure these acts of violence are never forgotten.
“Now visitors will get to read about these particular lynchings and particular sites. The other thing that’s important about these markers is that they actually represent the work in those communities by community members to memorialize this history so each of these markers is a duplicate of a marker that now exist in each of these communities.”
