Charlottesville and Confederate Monuments in the US
November 4 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
The second webinar of the Monument(al) Challenges series will introduce a range of teaching resources for addressing contested historical legacies in the classroom.
For this session, we are pleased to welcome Maureen Stephens (Choices Program at Brown University, Providence, USA) who will talk about the contested legacy of the Confederacy in the US, and in particular on the lesson plan that the Choices Program developed on the Robert E. Lee statue in Charlottesville, Virginia, in the wake of the white supremacist ‘Unite the Right’ rally in 2017.
For more on their work, you can explore the Choices Program.
