LYNCHING IN MARYLAND 

“The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them.”

– Ida B. Wells

The Reginald F. Lewis Museum of Maryland African American History & Culture, in collaboration with the Maryland Lynching Memorial Project, announce with solemn reflection, the opening of its new permanent installation, Lynching in Maryland. The Lynching in Maryland installation seeks to honor the victims of the 38 documented racial terror lynchings that occurred in the state between 1854 and 1933. The installation serves as a solemn reminder of the atrocities committed, while also educating the public about the lasting impact of racial terror on African Americans and their communities.

Tickets will be available soon. Thank you!
