Race for Freedom Description

The annual Race for Freedom is a 5k run in order to invite members of the community to participate in a symbolic run in the northern direction in order to remember and honor the lives of those once enslaved at the University of Virginia. This race is meant to honor ritual and begin the process of repair since all proceeds from the race will go towards the William and Isabella Scholarship Fund and the Petyon Skipwith Vocational Training Program.
