MARKED BY THESE MONUMENTS
A tour of the Confederate Monuments of Downtown Charlottesville and the history and memory of the people who put them up. Led by Dr. Andrea Douglas and Dr. Jalane Schmidt.
Charlottesville’s Confederate Monuments came down on a humid morning on July 10th, 2021.
We are honored to maintain this website as a testament to the historical research, activism, and time given to this cause by Dr. Jalane Schmidt, Dr. Andrea Douglas, Zyahna Bryant, the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, the members of the Blue Ribbon Commission on Race, Memorials and Public Spaces, and the countless community members, past and present, who have fought against racism and white supremacy in central Virginia.
