"When Remembering Isn't Enough"
Clint Tawes
Recently, Clint became involved in efforts to protect Charleston's historic Coming Street burial ground, an experience that has challenged him to think more deeply about his own Indigenous heritage and our responsibilities to those who came before us. On the eve of Indigenous Peoples' Day, he'll share what this experience is teaching him about sacred ground, historical injustice, and the difference between simply remembering our ancestors and truly honoring them.

"Our Ancestors Live On, Through Our Traditions"
Trinity Pederson
Traditions form a framework and foundation for a happy, secure life, starting in childhood. This Samhain, we celebrate and honor those loved ones who came before us through the traditions that we will carry out throughout the year. If you would like, bring a picture of a passed on loved one to set on the altar, as we turn the wheel of the year yet again. May their memories forever be a blessing!

Rowan Alexander
"Growing up in a Southern Baptist home as a closeted trans youth demolished any chance of infrastructure for faith within me. However, I still felt called by something. This is a brief history of the connection between religion and Blackness in America through my own lens of identity and understanding as a biracial historian in modern America." Rowan Alexander
