SUMMARY:UNESCO International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition
DESCRIPTION:UNESCO International Day for the Remembrance \nof the Slave Trade and its Abolition \nAugust 23rd | 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. \nAs a UNESCO Slave Route Site of Remembrance\, Historic Sotterley invites the public to this important day by honoring the memories of those that perished and survived the trans-Atlantic slave trade. We remember the abolition of the trade and celebrate the contributions of survivors whose strength built nations. 2019 also commemorates 400 years since the arrival of captured Africans to Jamestown\, VA. This program is made possible in part by a generous grant from Maryland Humanities. \n11:00 a.m. – Join community members and leaders in a ceremony which will include a reading of the names of known enslaved at Historic Sotterley\, and to pour libations and/or honor the ancestors in your own way at Historic Sotterley’s original slave cabin. \n1:00 p.m. – Hear and discuss how the slave trade and its abolition has affected and continues to affect us all. \n2:30 p.m. – Historic Sotterley’s bell will ring commemorating the 29 persons known to have perished on the Middle Passage to this site. \nCheck in at Visitor’s Center. \nFree site admission. \nGuided Tours will be limited (please check www.sotterley.org for availability). \nTwenty people per tour.

SUMMARY:UNESCO Publication Global Launch & World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development
DESCRIPTION:Historic Sotterley\, as a UNESCO Slave Route Site of Memory\, will participate in the global launch of the UNESCO publication entitled “Legacies of Slavery: A Resource Book for Managers of Sites and Itineraries of Memory” on Tuesday\, May 21\, 2019. The launch of this Resource book will be organized the same day and simultaneously in different countries of the world\, in collaboration with our partners. On this occasion\, the online version of “Legacies of Slavery” will be made available in three languages (English\, French and Spanish) in free access on the UNESCO website. \nThis Resource book is the fruit of the intensive work that was achieved by UNESCO’s Slave Route Project: Resistance\, Liberty\, Heritage\, in order to develop a tool that can be used by professionals involved in the safeguarding and promotion of sites related to the slave trade and slavery. Designed in two parts\, it contains conceptual and practical information for managers of sites of memory. It also provides a comparative analysis of best experiences and practices across regions\, through 40 examples of sites\, itineraries and museums implementing particular strategies for the preservation\, promotion and interpretation of heritage related to slavery. Moreover\, it offers advice and recommendations for the development of memory tourism\, responding to the ethical exigencies of this sensitive subject. \nThis event also coincides with the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development.  It will be an opportunity to engage in a reflection on the stakes of the preservation of the memory of slavery\, and mostly to question how this history can be integrated on memory policies. \nHistoric Sotterley will be participating with the following activities for this global launch: \n10 a.m.   \nOrganizational announcement of Sotterley’s UNESCO Slave Route Site of Memory designation and purpose for this event. \n10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. \nExhibition—Re-discovering Historic Sotterley’s Land\, Lives\, and Labor exhibit and Slave Cabin exhibit. \n1:00 p.m. \nOur Stories—A presentation and training of the interpretation of Sotterley’s manor house through diverse perspectives. \n2:30 p.m. 4:00 p.m. \nPublic Roundtable—Front-line Sotterley\, staff\, volunteers\, and leadership discuss the duty to remember and the right to history: issues and challenges.  Public audience input and comment. \nCall or email for more information.
