The Orange County Community Remembrance Coalition (OCCRC) invites the community to remember and honor five local men who were victims of racial terror lynchings in 1869: Cyrus Guy, Wright Malone, Daniel Morrow, Jefferson Morrow, and Washington Morrow. The ceremony, organized in partnership with the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), will take place on April 29 at 1 p.m. at the Orange County Courthouse in Hillsborough.
The public program will feature dance from Jasmine Powell, as well as poetry from NC Poet Laureate Jaki Shelton Green and Chapel Hill Poet Laureate Cortland Gilliam.
