African Burial Ground Memorial Reopening in New York City
The outdoor memorial at the African Burial Ground National Monument in Lower Manhattan will reopen Oct. 4, after being closed for months for maintenance upgrades.
African symbols are on the walls of the memorial’s ancestral libation chamber. This symbol (R) depicts the "meticulously ordered afterlife of the Kongo-Angolan people," according to the National Park Service. Helena Zhu/The Epoch Times
