Established in 1877 by African Americans who were born enslaved, Durham’s Geer Cemetery became the burial place for the Black people who built their city from the ground up and contributed to many of Durham’s institutions. The @friendsofgeercemetery have been working to maintain the grounds and are looking for a team of @DukeStudents to do research & storytelling of the people buried there through @DukeStoryPlus! There is an ongoing PRESERVATION CRISIS among Black cemeteries nationwide. #DukeStoryPlus is looking to put together a team of students who are interested in public history, genealogical research (you’ll get training!), racial justice, death and burial, and are looking to collab with like-minded peers along with the broader Durham community. So APPLY today for summer 2021! While the app portal is still open 🖊 #DukeSummer #Summer2021 #Humanities #HumanitiesResearch #DukeHumanities
