Say Their Names Memorial- Houston

The “Say Their Name Memorial” is a nationwide initiative to honor Black lives taken by systemic racism and racial injustice. We are raising money to assist for the security, directional signage and transportation of the memorial to Houston, TX. All other materials have been donated. The memorial was started in Portland, Oregon on Juneteenth 2020 and has been put up in over 25 locations nationwide since then.  We manage an ongoing submission driven database that includes names, photos and bios.  We produce traveling memorials for public exhibition as well as providing support for communities looking to create grassroots memorials in their own neighborhoods. 

Our https://www.saytheirnamesmemorials.com/ aim is to facilitate conversation around systemic racism while honoring those whose lives have been taken by it.
