In this chapter, the authors provide readers with some critical genealogical insights in order to argue that many of the twenty-first-century conundrums that confront the EJI’s consciousness-raising efforts about forgotten lynching legacies can be traced back to the time of the Reconstruction (1866–1877) and post-Reconstruction years. This was a time when anti-lynchers had to battle “unreconstructed” Southern defenders of white supremacy as well as some of their Northern allies.

This chapter analyzes the participatory rhetorics of Montgomery’s National Memorial for Peace and Justice. Using participatory critical rhetoric as a methodology for criticism, we show how this place of memory uses affective, visual, and embodied appeals to create participatory spaces for remembering lynching pasts (and presents) in U.S. counties where lynchings occurred. As a supplement to the Legacy Museum, which exists down the street from the memorial, this memorial provides a dark tourist countermemorial that powerfully ruptures dominant civil rights memories.
