Description

Descended from slaveowners and from enslaved people, Judge Susan Walker and Reverend Dale Braxton walked very different paths to Hopewell Baptist Church. Yet through their willingness to trust each other and tell the truth about the past, the two built a quilting project to honor enslaved people that brings Alabamians together to remember, grieve, sing, heal, and build something new.
