There are at least 44 million descendants of enslaved individuals alive today, but slavery separated families, erased names, and obscured facts. The 10 Million Names Project aims to reconnect these descendants with their ancestral stories, tracing back to the 10 million men, women, and children of African descent who were enslaved in the U.S., and to restore their names to history. Join Cynthia Evans to explore the scope, objectives, and methodology of this important initiative.

Cynthia Evans holds an M.A. in Museum Science. She is a researcher, historian, and genealogist with more than ten years of experience in African American history and research and five years of experience managing a genealogy center specializing in African American genealogy.

Our meetings are free and open to the public.
