The Say Their Names Memorial is a nationwide grassroots initiative featuring over 200 photos of Black victims whose lives were lost to racial injustice, police brutality and racism. The exhibition was started in Portland on Juneteenth.

"It is fitting that this exhibit will have a temporary home at Emancipation Park for the community to experience," said Ramon Manning, the board chairman. "Amidst the racial unrest and challenges being faced in the African American community, this exhibit provides an opportunity to honor lives lost and start an open dialogue surrounding peaceful social reform in our country."
