À propos de ce contenu audio

Welcome to The Monumental Project: How Historic Sites and Monuments of Yesterday Affect Us Today. As the official companion podcast of the Monuments Toolkit program, we will be diving deep into the pieces of American history found across the nation, and how the stories they carry impact the modern day American citizen. The goal of this podcast and the program at large, is to address the question “how do we address monuments of oppression?” What are our options for dealing with painful pieces of our past? How can we learn, heal, and move forward? By the end of this season we’ll have a better understanding.

    • Community Made Monuments
      Jan 13 2026

      Monuments are often designed by a single person or small team of people. The (Un)Set in Stone project defies that. Instead, the three initial creators of this monument pass the work onto the community of Montgomery, Alabama to define what monument represents them. Today, we're joined by Jose Vazquez and Ashley Edwards to talk about their work with this project and what it means for a monument to be community made.

    • Making a Monument: A Conversation with Harmonia Rosales
      Dec 12 2025

      As often as we discuss monuments that have stood for decades or centuries, we rarely find the opportunity to discuss a monument just recently erected. In our final episode of 2025, we're excited to share a conversation with Harmonia Rosales, the artist of a new monument in Boston, Massachusetts entitled, "Unbound." Harmonia shares with us her artistic vision for the monument, how the project came to be, and what her overall ethos is as an artist that works with sculpture, paintings, and more.

      Statues of Christopher Columbus have been at the forefront of the debate on monuments in both the United States and all over the world. In the city of Columbus, Ohio, they launched the Reimagining Columbus project in order to determine what ought to happen with their statue and their city's legacy moving forward.

      Today, we're joined by Shelly Corbin, an Indigenous Knowledge expert and a member of the Reimagining Columbus project. She tells us about how the project as wrapped up as well as about other monuments across South Dakota and her Lakota homelands.
