Seminar: Social Justice, Monuments, Museums, and Heritage
In this unit, entitled “Monuments, Museums and Murals: An Impact on Individual Identity”, students will have the opportunity to explore a variety of monuments and murals both in Philadelphia and across the United States of America in order to discover their significance not only in the history of the world, the country and the city of Philadelphia, but also in the development of the student himself. Students will work together to answer these questions: “What makes something a monument?”, “What does it mean to recognize something as a monument or as a piece of art?”, “Is something important simply because it is recognized as a monument or as art?” and “Is the narrative associated with a specific monument or work of art the true story?”.
