Dead Negro Hollow is a valley in Rhea County, Tennessee names after a black laborer was found murdered thereafter he had learned the location of a silver mine.

This name is offensive, it is time to change it to a Tennessean who fought against slavery, Elihu Embree. Elihu Embree Hollow will commemorate the man who published the Emancipator, the first newspaper in the United States solely devoted to the abolition of slavery.
