The Committee to Renew the Shaw 54th Regiment Memorial Cordially Invites you to a Community Conversation:
The Power of Public Monuments and Why They Matter
The Shaw 54th Memorial on the Boston Common has been called “one of the monuments that changed America.” More than 120 years old, the Memorial is positioned strategically on Boston Common opposite the Massachusetts State House. We hope this conversation will deepen the community’s dialogue about race, freedom, and justice and raise awareness of the significance of the memorial and the story it tells.
This event is free and open to the public. Light Refreshments will be served after the program. Questions or for more information, call 617-427-0046 or email shaw54thmemorial@gmail.com.
