Part 1: Removal of Confederate Monuments from Public Spaces
July 15, 2020 |
Two-Part Series on the Removal of Monuments from Public Spaces
In the “Statement on the Removal of Monuments to the Confederacy from Public Spaces”, issued on June 19, 2020, the SAH Heritage Conservation Committee and Board of Directors formally advocated for the removal of Confederate monuments from public spaces in the U.S. The statement explains that the removal of monuments to the Confederacy, potent symbols of white supremacy, is a necessary step toward racial justice and equity in the U.S.
SAH recognizes, however, that Confederate monuments are not the only objects in the public realm that hold the power to oppress and there are built structures all across the world that do the same. To continue the dialogue on the larger issue at hand—the removal of monuments from public spaces—SAH will host two online panel discussions.
