The Yard
Rhodes College professor, Dr. Huebner's research reveals that there used to be a slave yard in the parking lot of the church he attends, situated in the middle of downtown Memphis. Not just any slave yard, but one belonging to Nathan Bedford Forrest, a famed general in the Confederate army. What irks Dr. Huebner is the existing marker on the edge of the property doesn't mention the fact that humans had been sold there by one of the South's favorite sons for immense profit and personal gain.
