Should monuments only be regulated by the government?
Today in Intro to Public History @ruitph @Rutgers_Newark we took some time to think about what we’ve learned about monuments.
Power does not enter the story once and for all, but at different times and from different angles. It precedes the narrative proper, contributes to its creation and to its interpretation.” From Trouillot’s Silencing the Past
“The freedoms memorial became the nations monument to emancipation might have better commemorated slavery.”
“Memorial mania shaped by the fevered pitch of public feelings in America today”
We’ve also connected with some of our reading. Ericka Ross- “ Memorial Mania: a contemporary national obsession with issues of memory and history and an urgent desire to express, and claim those issues in various forms of public art and remembrance” (2)
Should monuments only be regulated by the government?
What does the Christopher Columbus monument mean to you?
