Hi Jennifer –

This is an example from the University of Denver – though not a site of an injustice but an example of a memorial being framed as a social action site: https://www.du.edu/ahss/cjs/hai/hmsas/

I’ll see if anything else comes to mind.

Shosh

Hello colleagues,

Does anyone have examples of artwork where the site of an injustice becomes the site of an artwork that may commemorate, but also takes the opportunity to move the conversation forward?

I'm not looking for a whitewash, but more an honoring/healing sort of approach.

Thanks,
