Reimagining
Indigenous Representations is a 12-month program. This project will reconsider Native American memorials and artwork and how they are mis-represented or outright ignored. First, three experts, "a public historian, a Native American artist, and a landscape specialist – will each reimagine a particular Native American monument" (Sites of Conscience, 2022) chosen by public nominations. In the next two phases, the ICSC will host discussions on how these sites could be redone, "to develop new tools and approaches for contextualizing Native American monuments and content in their own respective communities" (Sites of Conscience, 2022).
