26 African American Monument at S.C. State House Grounds in Columbia, South Carolina

On the grounds of the South Carolina State House in Columbia is the African-American History Monument by Ed Dwight. Its 12 panels portray their historic struggles from being auctioned through their present day successes. The details, faces and settings provide a chilling insight into the plight of the four million slaves and their descendants since they first arrived in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619.
