This is quite an amazing repository of North Carolina history. They named each enslaved man forced to build the state Capitol, and gave his history and the history of his enslaver. I go to Raleigh often, and I always think about stuff like this. This whole project is unexpected

Today we officially launch a new digital humanities project that names and shares the stories of the 130+ enslaved African American men who built, maintained, and worked in the NC State Capitol 1833-1865. We invite you to visit namingtoknowing.org #BlackHistoryMonth

Progress! ✨ Each piece of copper paneling is individually measured & fitted before workers carry the panels up to the roof. The seams are double crimped with a machine and by hand to make a water-tight seal Video courtesy of Charlie Sarratt @SkySiteImages
