We welcome community members to self-nominate and/or share the HerStory of a Black woman who has made a positive civic, social, political, or creative impact in St. Louis.

Submissions will be considered for inclusion in an upcoming public installation by the Monument Lab Re:Generation project, which seeks to highlight Black HERSTORY through exhibition, oral histories, and public memory-making.

The Griot Museum of Black History earns one of Monument Lab’s $100k Re:Generation project grants to support the launch of its Black HerStory Initiative, which eeks to honor Black women whose contributions span political, social, and cultural spheres of the city through oral histories and public mark-making.
