Two Episcopal churches in Richmond, Virginia design and run a “Walking with the Enslaved” pilgrimage intended to confront the city’s history of slavery. The initiative is described as retracing a route associated with the movement of enslaved people through Richmond, a city that served as both a major center of the domestic slave trade and the Confederate capital. Participating churches frame the walk as a way to encourage reflection among local residents and to prompt public engagement with Richmond’s racist past. Coverage also links the pilgrimage to an existing “slave trail” route used as part of a broader citywide walking tour, which explores Richmond’s role in the domestic slave trade. The accounts emphasize that the program is church-led and focuses on historical remembrance rather than a legal or political action. The churches present the walk as an opportunity for participants to learn about and acknowledge how enslaved people were transported and how that legacy remains connected to institutions in the city. All reporting describes the event in terms of education, commemoration, and community outreach centered on a documented path connected to slavery.
