Seminary Built on Slavery and Jim Crow Labor Has Begun Paying Reparations


“When white institutions have to face up with the sins of their past, we’ll do everything we can to prevaricate, and we’ll especially prevaricate if it’s going to have some sort of financial implication,” said the Rev. Ian Markham, president and dean of the seminary, which is in Alexandria, Virginia. “We wanted to make sure that we both not just say and articulate and speak what’s right but also take some action — and we were committed to that from the outset.”
