In a panel discussion titled “What Remains: The Legacy and Future of Confederate Monuments,” curator, writer, and artist Noah Simblist and artist lauren woods converse with a special guest(TBA) concerning the ways that communities tell the stories of our shared histories through art, scholarship, archives, and the built environment, with a crucial element of the discussion being the yet unresolved issue of how we reconcile competing perspectives on the same moment in time, whether it is the Civil War, Reconstruction, Jim Crow, the Civil Rights era, or Black Lives Matter activism.
