Students read about sites of memory in How the Word Is Passed and imagine how to commemorate what occurred there. They then compare that to how the respective site is currently commemorated and described by docents, as well as how slavery is viewed at places like Monticello, Angola State Prison, Galveston Island and others. Students are asked to create their own idea for how slavery should be commemorated in modern times.
