Remember with Us: Commemoration of the Enslaved [May 7, 2021]
As an outgrowth of the course taught by Dr. Joseph Soares, Sociology 391: Social Memories: Nazi Holocaust and US Civil War, his students focused the university's attention on an important part of Wake Forest University history previously ignored--namely, the selling of enslaved persons (as part of the Blount estate, link: https://wakespace.lib.wfu.edu/handle/10339/93888) on May 7th, 1860 to financially support Wake Forest. This video captures students from this course, supported by the Department of Sociology and School of Divinity, who commemorated this part of WFU history.Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the second commemoration was held online on May 30, 2020. The third installment was also held virtually on May 7, 2021. Coordinated by SRMP co-chairs Kami Chavis and Tim Pyatt, the program included a musical selection sung by combined Wake Forest and Winston-Salem State choirs and remarks from WF faculty. Remarks by President Nathan O. Hatch came at the end of the program
