Powerful words from the family of C. L. Daniel regarding last week's ceremony, “Today represents more than a memorial for C.L. Daniel and those still resting in unidentified graves; it is a long-awaited acknowledgment of lives impacted by the massacre and a testament to the resilience of the Greenwood community, which has sought recognition and justice for their loved ones over generations.” There is still much work to be done, and we are honored to be part of the effort to restore information once thought to be lost forever. https://lnkd.in/g9A-t4T2
