“Remember with Us: Commemoration of the Enslaved” to be held May 7

May 5, 2021

The Wake Forest University Slavery, Race and Memory Project will sponsor an event on Friday, May 7, at 5 p.m., to commemorate the enslaved individuals who worked for or were sold to benefit institution that would become Wake Forest University. During the virtual event, “Remember with Us: Commemoration of the Enslaved,” members of the greater University community will read the names of those enslaved individuals.

The Slavery, Race and Memory Project guides the research, preservation and communication of an accurate depiction of the University’s relationship to slavery, and its implications across Wake Forest’s history and the history of the United States.
