Report of the Working Group on Slavery, Memory, And
REPORT OF THE WORKING GROUP ON SLAVERY, MEMORY, AND RECONCILIATION TO THE PRESIDENT OF GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY Washington, D.C. June 3, 2016 REPORT OF THE WORKING GROUP ON SLAVERY, MEMORY, AND RECONCILIATION TO THE PRESIDENT OF GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY Washington, D.C. June 3, 2016 Dr. John J. DeGioia, the president of Georgetown University, assembled the Working Group on Slavery, Memory, and Reconciliation in September 2015. His charging letter outlined three tasks for the Working Group over the course of the academic year: Make recommendations on how best to acknowledge and recognize the university’s historical relationship to the institution of slavery. Examine and interpret the history of certain sites on the campus. Convene events and opportunities for dialogue on these issues. This report offers an overview of the Working Group’s activities, reflections on its mandate and work over the last academic year, and recommendations to the President on how the university community should continue its engagement with this history and its legacy. Although submission of this report concludes the Working Group’s responsibilities, the Working Group understands the report as offering direction and encouragement for the continuing efforts of the university. The report is organized in four sections. The first section sketches the Working Group’s activities over the seven months between its charging meeting on September 24, 2016, and the transmission of this report to the President. The second section offers the Working Group’s reflections on its seven months of consultation and deliberation, organized around the three concepts in the Working Group’s name: slavery, memory, and reconciliation. -
