  • Monuments Are Art, and They Reflect Values—They Are Not Historical
    STATEMENT FROM DR. MALINDA MAYNOR-LOWERY Monuments are art, and they reflect values—they are not historical instruction and they do not reflect a historical understanding (though members of society who would like us to believe in their versions of the past have consciously labeled them as “history,” and the public is divided over whether that is at issue). In fact, what is at issue with these monuments are values, and who gets to decide what represents a community’s values. In our Center’s collaboration, we’ve worked to define public art, and we’ve worked to determine what values public art should express. Collectively, we arrived at an important premise for our work: a few cannot legitimately determine, on behalf of the many, what to commemorate, and doing so will ultimately result in public works of art that neglect the complexity of the individuals commemorated and emphasize the values of some to exclude others. For example, Confederate monuments, Mount Rushmore, Columbus statues, conquistador statues, and pioneer monuments in the West all reflect a celebration of conquest, and if Indigenous or Black people are not overtly depicted, they imply that these populations had little if nothing to say about these historical figures or the events they participated in. Of course some monuments, like Early Days in San Francisco, the Lewis and Clark monument in Charlottesville, or the monument in Lincoln Park in Washington DC actually do depict the people being conquered, or enslaved, always in subordinate positions to the individuals featured. These monuments are especially interesting because they work against the historical evidence we have, that these supposedly subordinate peoples actually played a determinative role in the ventures being celebrated.

  • Tributes to Lincoln in Racine
    PRESERVATION NEWSLETTER RACINE, INC. Spring, 2009 Tributes to Lincoln in Racine For the Chinese this is the Year of the Ox, for Americans it is the year of Lincoln. February 12, 2009, marks the bicentennial birthday anniversary of our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. His memory is being celebrated nationally throughout the year. Preservation Racine has recognized him in the January 12* Journal Times "Commimity Newsletter" and at the February 2°'' membership meeting when we enjoyed "Lincoln in Wisconsin" presented by Lincoln historian, Steven Rogstad. Bom into a poor, pioneering rural family, Abra­ ham Lincoln began his self-education at an early age. With scarcely a full year of actual schooling, he became one of the greatest masters of the English language. First elected to the presidency at a critical time, preceding the Civil War, his leadership skills resulted, at the end of that conflict, in a reunited nation. Across our country his name appears on street signs, buildings, parks, schools and colleges, monuments, and banks. And, so it has been in Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln Racine. The former Cross Street was renamed East Park, 1000 block South Main Street, Racine Lincoln Street in 1874; Lincoln Field is now Lincoln Park; Lincolnwood Court (1962) and Lincolnwood Drive (1985) are the latest streets to bear his name. Mount Pleasant boasts Lincoln School was built in 1890.

  • First Movie Studio Lincoln Heights, Los Angeles
    EPISODE 4 2004 - FIRST MOVIE STUDIO LINCOLN HEIGHTS, LOS ANGELES Gwen: Our last story reveals a little known story from the earliest days of movie making. The film indus- try movie stars, film studios and spectacle. It all began in the famous areas of Los Angeles like Hollywood, Burbank and Studio City. Or did it? Some 10 miles south west of the glitter, glamour and fame of Hollywood is a neighborhood you won’t find mentioned in the popular history of Hollywood. Lincoln Heights. Today’s it’s a largely Latino, residential neighborhood. But one woman has heard a legend that her local park was where LA’s movie industry really began. It’s a story that - if true - could rewrite the popular version of events. 33-year old Anita Martinez is a fourth-generation Angeleno whose family originally came from Mexico. She’s lived near the park for over 10 years. Anita Martinez: This park is Lincoln Park which is named for Lincoln Heights. I’ve been coming to this park since I was a little girl. Gwen: Just recently, Anita heard that these old park gates once formed the entrance to LA’s first movie stu- dio. Anita: There are rumors in the neighborhood from different people that have lived here for awhile, old-timers, that there actually is probably more to the history of this park than just what we see today. Gwen: I’m Gwen Wright and I’ve come to Lincoln Heights to investigate. So Anita, what would you like to know? Anita: Um, I’m interested in finding out if this gateway is the entrance to the first movie studio in Los Angeles.
