"Informally known as “The Lynching Museum” this memorial is the first commemoration of the horrific number of men, women, and children who have been murdered because of the color of their skin in the United States. The memorial was opened in 2018, largely designed and funded by donations and the Equal Justice Initiative. It features 805 hanging steel coffin shaped rectangles - one for every county where a documented lynching took place leading up to 2018. Attached to the memorial is the Legacy Museum which showcases the history of racism in America."
