A Blank Slate

A Tribute to African American History in the Face of the Confederacy

The term “Confederate monument” often conjures up images of white army generals on horseback, leading the south into battle.

The Blank Slate Palimpsest Monument (“Blank Slate”) is an awe striking, allegorical deconstruction of that notion, challenging the onlooker to seek a deeper understanding of the “African American” experience before, during and after the American Civil War (1861-1865).
