Synopsis

A meaningful form of racial justice advocacy leading to social change through rituals of remembrance.

Memoried and Storied moves beyond the outrage and horror of Post-Civil War lynchings by sharing details about the victims' lives, saying their names, and bringing compassion and healing to their memory through multi-racial, multi-generational, community-led rituals of remembrance. Full-color photos enhance the narrative depicting historical monuments, events, people of the communities, and families of the victims.

Since 1976, Dr. Judith Reifsteck has worked as a writer, licensed professional counselor, university professor, social science researcher, and psychotherapist.

The purpose of her writing is to advocate for the vulnerable who may not have visibility or a voice in their communities. She hopes her work leads others to join together in multi-racial coalitions to learn an accurate and inclusive Black History, and believes that in memorializing the stories and the victims of racial injustice, we may repair the trauma and tell the true story of structural racism in America.
