Monuments, Mascots, and Naming: A Guide to Conversations About Community & Memory
Is a monument an object of history or is it a statement of values? Are we celebrating the people depicted or only marking their significance? Does a school name tell us something about its vision for the future? Can mascots perpetuate prejudice even as they bridge generations?

Monuments, Mascots, and Naming: A Guide to Conversations About Community & Memory is designed to help you, your institution, and your community explore these questions together.
