A recording of our webinar program with Witness Stones Project co-founder Dennis Culliton and Pat Wilson Pheanious, Chair of the Board of Directors. Inspired by the Stolpersteine project in Germany, the Witness Stones Project began in Guilford, Connecticut, in 2017 to restore the history and honor the humanity of the enslaved individuals who helped build our communities.
The Witness Stones Project now partners with historical organizations across southern New England and beyond, strengthening relationships between local organizations, educators, and students as they work together to share the story of slavery in their communities. Dennis and Pat will discuss the Witness Stones Project and the exciting relationships it is forging with Historic Deerfield and other historical organizations and schools to share more diverse and inclusive place-based histories.
