Zion Christian Cemetery, 1426 S. Parkway E., was the setting on March 23, 2019 for the unveiling of an historic marker in memory of Memphis business partners Thomas Moss, Calvin McDowell and William Stewart, who were lynched in March 1892 several days after racist intruders descended upon their store, The People’s Grocery. The National Park Service marker was placed at the grave of Moss in keeping with the movement to document the history of lynching in the U.S. (Photo: Tyrone P. Easley/TSD archives)
