About this campaign
OUR VISION FOR THE FUTURE: The Slave Dwelling Project envisions a future in which the hearts and minds of Americans acknowledge a more truthful and inclusive narrative of the history of the nation that honors the contributions of all our people, is embedded and preserved in the buildings and artifacts of people of African heritage, and inspires all Americans to acknowledge their Ancestors.
OUR MISSION has five parts: (1) Raise awareness and organize resources to preserve, interpret, maintain and sustain extant slave dwellings and other structures significant to the stories of the enslaved Ancestors. (2) Bring together scholars and practitioners, preservationists, students and educators, writers, artists, legislators, organizations and businesses with the general public to:
Change the narrative of American history and address the legacies of slavery,
Preserve and sustain slave dwellings,
Promote education about slavery and the contributions of African Americans,
Engage in conversation about all these matters. (3) Support and encourage individuals and organizations to preserve and mark sites related to the institution of slavery and the legacy of slavery(4) Educate ourselves and others about the intertwined history of Americans of African and European origins, from the country’s founding to the present, to help us rewrite the narrative of history, preserve slave dwellings, and have dialogue about the legacies of slavery. (5) Engage people in honest conversations about slavery, race, racism and racial equity in search of improved racial relations.

One of my ancestors was a slave in Connecticut. This program is more important than ever now. Our nation must come to grips with the reality of our history.
I love that Project Slave Dwelling believes history should be talked about not hidden or stripped away. My hope is to one day take a tour w/ your organization.
Helping to continue the work of Slave Dwelling Project at Dallas Heritage Village.
Our story needs to be told.
Because I believe we should tell the true story.
Changing the narrative Is an American reality that needs to be addressed and who’s time is long overdue.
Joseph does a great job and I believe in preserving history and using it to teach actual facts, not teaching make believe or destroying what is uncomfortable to hear about.
I believe it is important to face our history so we can solve our problems.
