Great Regulars: Question:

Where did "Remember to Wave" begin?

[Kaia] Sand: This project was launched from conversations with poet Lucille Clifton when we both lived in southern Maryland. Lucille would talk about the impermanence of slave grave markers, how rocks that marked the graves could have ended up in walls and manors and even the replica statehouse in the surrounding county. Without clear markers, how could we see the graves? Yet we knew they were there.
