SUMMARY:Memorializing the Enslaved of Arlington: Dedication of Stumbling Stones
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we commemorate the lives of Con and Killemasce\, who were enslaved by John Hurst in the 1760s. \nSince the late 1700s\, African Americans made important contributions to the development of Arlington County. Until recently\, histories of Arlington often excluded or misrepresented their stories. \nMemorializing the Enslaved in Arlington (MEA)\, a project sponsored by the Arlington Historical Society and the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington\, brings our county’s African American history to light. Research into local records uncovers the brutal truth of enslavement in Arlington and the human cost for all involved. Most importantly\, it reveals the fortitude and resilience of the local enslaved community. \nMEA honors the lives and contributions of Arlington’s once enslaved people by placing memorial plaques throughout the county at sites of enslavement. \nLearn more about this project and its findings at: https://arlhist.org/enslavement/
