Join Caroline Randall Williams, Elizabeth Alexander, Paul M. Farber, and Viet Thanh Nguyen in conversation. This second online Monuments Project discussion will address “provocative questions about the making of our commemorative spaces, including what a monument is, how myth-making has shaped the process of memorializing, and why new commemorations will expand the American Story.”*
