Description
The impetus for the first edition was violent
actions---the white supremacist rally in
Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017, which
was touched off by discussions about removing a
statue to Robert E. Lee, and resulted in the
death of Heather Heyer. Since the publication of
the first edition, both history and democracy
are being threatened in ways that we were only
seeing small glimpses of in 2018. Today, attempts
to elevate new or more complex history has been
met with vilification. States across the country
have passed legislation to ban critical race
theory from being taught in public schools and
are seeking ways to limit what teachers are
allowed to teach about slavery and race in the
United States. These threats are unlikely to
abate. As such, our responsibility as historians,
community leaders, museum professionals, and
citizens is to redouble our efforts to share
human stories in relatable ways and to exercise
our rights and wield our power whenever and
however we can. The revised edition tackles the
great issues of our time against the backdrop of
monument culture and historical truth.
