Voices of Woodlawn is a program that looks back at American history and reflects forward on what slavery then means to us today...

Voices of Woodlawn is a 35-minute program of poetry written in reflection on the 90 largely unknown slaves at Historic Woodlawn Plantation in Fairfax, VA.  The harmonica-flowing program was recorded last Sunday during the worship service at Davies Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Camp Springs, MD.

Here's the link --

The story told by these poems is very moving and is very, very timely.
