The Commemorative to Enslaved Peoples of Southern Maryland was dedicated by St. Mary’s College of Maryland on the site where the remains of slave cabins were discovered in 2016. The Commemorative to Enslaved Peoples of Southern Maryland provides visitors with the space to acknowledge and learn from the lives of those who once toiled in enslavement while providing a place for reflection and introspection about the nature of slavery and its connections to modern society. The Commemorative uses the slave quarter as a symbol of resilience, determination, and persistence. The erasure poetry that covers the structure is adapted from historical documents related to the Mackall-Brome plantation — one of three known plantations located on the land around St. Mary’s City.
