Abstract
The declaration grew out of community meetings around the state starting in January 2008. During 2008, organizers traveled the state to get feedback on the draft in order to secure support for a truth and reconciliation commission in Mississippi. On January 31, 2009, at a gathering in Jackson, a large group of Mississippians met and accepted the declaration, pledging to move forward together on a truth and reconciliation commission in the state.
