Description

As the agency reported it.

Prior to its destruction by arson in 1905, IT occupied a portion of the future vanderbilt campus. The racialized violence experienced by RWU students, faculty, and administrators in the wake of reconstruction and JIM crow was not unique; rather, IT was part of a concerted regional effort to interrupt black higher education. This symposium will convene scholars, designers, urban planners, and black community stakeholders of the adjacent edgehill community to share research and conceptualize a memorial to RWU. Meeting at the historic site of RWU?s campus, participants will build a collaborative plan for various professionals, neighborhood, and community leaders to situate the erasure of this injustice and its living legacy within the fabric of the campus and wider city. The plan will be published online and serve as a comprehensive history of RWU and guide for future memorialization.]
