The Royall House & Slave Quarters invites you to its first live online program: a conversation with Kyera Singleton, the organizaton’s new executive director.

She has held academic fellowships from Emory University and the American Association of University Women. She has a B.A. in American Studies and Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies from Macalester College.

Kyera has demonstrated her commitment to making history both visible and accessible through public history projects in museums and nonprofits that are committed to social justice.
