White Supremacy. Microaggressions. Black Lives Matter. Reparations. The issues are urgent, the conversation moving at breakneck speed, but is our country heading forward, or backward?

Green-Wood at Night! Tour of Green-Wood Cemetery
500 25th Street at Green-Wood Cemetery
Time: 7pm – 9pm

Long after Green-Wood’s gates close to the public, explore its historic grounds under the cover of night. You’ll visit some of the cemetery’s most intriguing monuments, including the elaborate memorial to John Matthews (the “Soda Fountain King”), Charles Calverley’s marble portrait of Precious Georgie, the formerly unmarked grave of William Poole (aka, “Bill the Butcher”), and Harvey Burdell whose famous murder in 1887 resulted in the criminal trial of the 19th Century. Bring a flashlight and wear comfortable shoes.
