## Resource

Charleston’s historic Johnson Hagood Stadium is set for major renovations—and with it, the careful relocation of over 300 graves uncovered during 2004 construction. Built atop Tower Hill Cemetery, which held more than 26,000 souls from 1841 to 1927, the site includes enslaved Black people, Irish immigrants, soldiers, sailors, and infants. The Citadel is partnering with the city and community to honor these forgotten lives, while a local educator has spent two years compiling a database of those buried there. She’s pushing for a memorial garden—not just a plaque—to truly honor their stories. The city mandates thorough research, archaeological work, public consultation, and council approval before reinterment, ensuring history is respected amid progress.
