In 2015, construction on Baldwin Hall on the University of Georgia at Athens campus came to a halt when workers discovered human remains on the site. DNA tests revealed what many local historians already knew to be true: these were the remains of former slaves. This discovery and the events that followed have forced the often-forgotten histories of slavery and segregation to rise to the surface, both at the University of Georgia and in Athens. This round table will discuss issues and consequences of this discovery.
