Correct name[edit]

This memorial is opening this month, April 2018. According to the memorial's own material^[1] and a CBS 60 Minutes report featuring Oprah Winfrey and its director Bryan Stevenson, it is called the "National Memorial for Peace and Justice" (not "to"). I propose to move the article to the correct name.Parkwells (talk) 18:36, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reception[edit]

Perhaps not yet but at some point mention could be made about local and national response to the Memorial. If and when, this article and this article may be a good references. ―Buster7 ☎ 17:04, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Citation Problem[edit]

Citation 10 claims to cover the information in the paragraph about it, but going to that page on cbs.com doesn't lead to all the same info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shankyouverymuch08 (talk • contribs) 12:38, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The reference states in the very first sentence that "The first national memorial for victims of lynching is expected to open in 2017 with a mission to help the U.S. confront its legacy of slavery." My read of that implies that this is the first "National" memorial. ―Buster7 ☎ 13:26, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
