Greenwood Cemetery is the final resting place of over 50,000 African Americans whose legacies stretch back generations. But for years, erosion and neglect made the site nearly impossible to access. That changed when a group of volunteers decided not to let history disappear.
In this episode of Sustainably Speaking, we visit with the Greenwood community about how they worked with engineers, nonprofits, and recycled materials to reopen the cemetery's main road and preserve the stories buried there.
In this episode, you'll hear:
● How recycled materials and permeable pavers were used to restore the cemetery for years to come
● Why Engineers Without Borders, the ACC and the community came together to support the project
● What the restoration has meant for families across the country
● How Greenwood is now inspiring similar restoration efforts nationwide
