TPC’s Peacemaking Action Team and our Youth Ministry invite you to gather at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, January 16th in the TPC parking lot and walk to the old Towson jailhouse (the corner of Bosley and Towsontown) to view the permanent historical marker that describes the lynching of 15 year-old Howard Cooper in 1885.
Joining us will be Will Schwarz, President of the Maryland Memorial Lynching Project. Click here to learn more about the Howard Cooper Project and here for a video that describes the events leading up to Howard Cooper’s lynching.
