Historical Marker Committee /
Erecting a Public Marker
There can be no reconciliation and healing without remembering the past.
​
The Historical Marker Project will erect narrative markers in public locations describing the devastating violence, today widely unknown, that once took place in these locations in Bulloch County and nationally.
​
This project requires a significant engagement effort across the community. The goal is to erect a public marker at a place of prominence such as the Bulloch County Courthouse, City Hall, and/or at the sites of the racial terror lynchings.
​
Adrianne McCollar is chairing the Historical Marker Committee that will complete this Community Engagement Project. Email to support or join the Committee.
