Experts, historians and volunteers have been uncovering 海角换妻鈥檚 ties to slavery. It鈥檚 one thing to unearth this forgotten history, but how do we not forget it? Meet some of the people working with students to make sure that the stories of enslaved 海角换妻 residents endure. The Witness Stones Project helps schools and local communities 鈥渞estore the history and honor the humanity鈥� of enslaved people who helped build 海角换妻. What happened centuries ago matters today, the students say.
In our final episode, reporter/producer Diane Orson and editorial consultant and curator ask: How do we not forget this history? Mitchell discusses ways communities can reimagine their built environment to bring forward these stories. Mitchell also shares his hope that institutions of privilege will partner with community members to memorialize this history together.
