Baltimore County Lynching Memorial Committee

  • Goucher College (Hyman Forum of the Athenaeum) 1021 Dulaney Valley Road Towson, MD, 21204 United States (map)

NOTE NEW DATE!!

The Maryland Lynching Memorial Project seeks to advance the cause of reconciliation in our state by documenting racial terror lynchings, advocating for public acknowledgment of these murders, and working to honor and dignify the lives of Maryland’s lynching victims.

Consistent with these goals, we are creating a Baltimore County Lynching Memorial Committee and hope to build a broad coalition that will work together to identify, plan and organize appropriate ways of acknowledging the victims of racial terror in the county and advancing the cause of reconciliation.

The meeting on January 25, 2020 will include presentations and films from the MD Lynching Memorial Project, local historians, community leaders and others. However, the bulk of the meeting will be dedicated to a public discussion on the legacy of lynching in Baltimore County and how to address it.

Your voice matters! Join us on the path from truth to reconciliation!
