This picture was taken right next to the new monument that had been built by Richmond residents. In the middle of the image there is a small blue plaque that reads “Sacred Forest.” I thought this was a beautiful way to honor those whose lives had been lost at the jail. Obviously the trees are very young so they were planted recently, but I thought it was a beautiful symbol of bringing life back into a place where such dark things occurred. Trees that still stand were probably there when all of the prisoners were buried, so I found it symbolic that new trees and new memories would be made in this space, and people can honor those who lost their lives.
