Memorial Day- how former slaves reburied the Union dead for our first memorial day
May 28, 2010, 4:44 p.m.
Curiously, our official recognition of Memorial day began not with Union Soldiers or Confederate soldiers, for that matter. But rather with liberated slaves who wished to honor the Union Dead,
According to the Charleston Post and Courier, on a Monday morning, May, 1865, nearly 10,000 former slaves marched onto the grounds of the old Washington Race Course, where wealthy Charleston planters and socialites had gathered in old times. During the final year of the war, the track had been turned into a prison camp. Hundreds of Union soldiers died there and were buried in mass graves.
For two weeks in April, former slaves had worked to re-inter the Union soldiers in proper individual graves.
On May 1, 1865, they sought to give them a proper funeral

Short interview with Kasper at the Woodward's Squat. He discusses errors in a discription of himself in a news article and some of the events from the inside.
"One of the newcomers, 17-year-old Casper Learn, was phoned by a friend Wednesday night and asked to come down. The burly Learn, who has a bolt through the skin between his eyes and the word 'fuck' tattooed roughly on the fingers of his right hand, said the newcomers were initially blocked from entering by the organizers, but by the time the Thursday rally had begun, everybody was in it together. Learn arrived from the U.S. with his parents last year and now lives with a group of young people in a Granville Street apartment. 'I'm a socialist; I believe everyone should have the right to housing, preferably free', said Learn, who spent two nights in the squat before returning to his Granville Street home Friday night."
