On March 2-3, 1859, in West #Savannah, 436 enslaved African American men, women, and children were presented for sale under torrential rain. The historical account says the skies opened, and even God “wept.”
Today, 165 years later, we again gather to commemorate their lives, tell their stories, and commit to justice and equity for all. #TheWeepingTime #SavannahStrong
