Episode discussion topics
- On monuments: Why they are important and under what conditions they serve us the best.
- Challenges with venerating ancestors.
- Effective ways to venerate ancestors.
- Opportunity to keep alive the valuable ideas of our ancestors and inspire a shared symbology that aligns with the principles of a more perfect union.
- We accidentally do not have a transcript for this episode. We did provide a copy of the public comment that MVP provided to the Monuments & Memorials Committee of San Francisco.
- Calls to Action:
- This is truly a grassroots activity and one where citizens can force a lot of change. Throughout our local communities, there are monuments to the humans that came before us. Inspiring as they may be, their shortcomings are controversial and distracting nonetheless.
- Identify these examples of ancestor veneration in your community. Approach your local representatives on the county or town council to understand the motivation for the art and how it may be symbolized in another non-human-specific way.
- Speak with your neighbors in the local community and understand their perspectives on this topic and whether they might be interested in supporting a change for our children's sake at the least.
- Speak with local artists to understand why kind of symbology might make sense to express the valuable ideals of the figure to be replaced. We want to honor the valuable lessons learned from the past so as not to fall victim to repeating our mistakes.
Your hosts: Michael V. Piscitelli and Raymond Wong Jr.
