Second Division Memorial Modification 8120 President’S Park Constitution Avenue, NW & 17Th Street, NW NCPC MAP FILE NUMBER Washington, DC 1.31(73.10)45017
Executive Director’s Recommendation Commission Meeting: November 7, 2019 PROJECT NCPC FILE NUMBER Second Division Memorial Modification 8120 President’s Park Constitution Avenue, NW & 17th Street, NW NCPC MAP FILE NUMBER Washington, DC 1.31(73.10)45017 SUBMITTED BY APPLICANT’S REQUEST United States Department of the Interior Approval of comments on concept National Park Service plans REVIEW AUTHORITY PROPOSED ACTION Commemorative Works Act Approve comments on concept per 40 U.S.C. § 8905 plans ACTION ITEM TYPE Staff Presentation PROJECT SUMMARY The National Park Service (NPS), in cooperation with the Second Indianhead Division Association Memorials Foundation, has submitted concept plans for proposed modifications to the Second Division Memorial, which is located in the southwest corner of President's Park on the Ellipse near Constitution Avenue and Seventeenth Street, NW in Washington, DC. The memorial currently honors the service members who lost their lives in the service of the Second Division of the United States Army during World War I, World War II, and the Korean War. The current design includes an eighteen-foot-high sculpture of a hand grasping a flaming sword that guards an architectural frame of granite. Panels with inscriptions recognize particular campaigns. The Second Division Memorial was dedicated on July 18, 1936. On August 15, 1957, Congress authorized an addition to the memorial to honor the Second Division members lost in World War II and the Korean War. On August 13, 2018, Congress authorized a modification to the memorial under the provisions of the Commemorative Works Act, to allow for recognition of soldiers who lost their lives while serving in Korea on the Demilitarized Zone from 1965-1991, Iraq from 2003-2010, and Afghanistan from 2009-2013. -

Journal of History Culture and Art Research (ISSN: 2147-0626) Tarih Kültür ve Sanat Araştırmaları Dergisi Vol. 9, No. 3, September 2020 DOI: 10.7596/taksad.v9i3.2768 Citation: Borysovych, O. V., Chaiuk, T. A., & Karpova, K. S. (2020). Black Lives Matter: Race Discourse and the Semiotics of History Reconstruction. Journal of History Culture and Art Research, 9(3), 325- 340. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.7596/taksad.v9i3.2768 Black Lives Matter: Race Discourse and the Semiotics of History Reconstruction Oksana V. Borysovych1, Tetyana A. Chaiuk2, Kateryna S. Karpova3 Abstract The death of unarmed black male George Floyd, who was killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, May 25, 2020, has given momentum to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement whose activists rallied in different parts of the world to remove or deface monuments to historic figures associated with racism, slavery, and colonialism. These social practices of toppling statues have a discursive value and, since they are meant to communicate a message to the broader society, these actions are incorporated into a semiotic system. This study examines signs and, therefore, the system of representations involved in toppling statues performed by BLM activists and documented in photos. The research employs a critical approach to semiotics based on Roland Barthes’ (1964) semiotic model of levels of signification. However, for a comprehensive analytical understanding, the study also makes use of a multidisciplinary Critical Discourse Analysis CDA approach which provides a systematic method to examine and expose power relations, inequality, dominance, and oppression in social practices. Besides its general analytical framework, the integrated CDA approach combines Fairclough’s (1995) three-dimensional analytical approach, which presupposes examining text, discursive practice, and sociocultural practice, with Reisigl and Wodak’s (2001, 2017) Discourse Historical Analysis (DHA), which investigates ideology and racism within their socio-cultural and historic context. -

Appendix C Evolution of Arts Uses in the Arts Overlay Zone
Appendix C Evolution of Arts Uses in the Arts Overlay Zone A short (and incomplete) history of the arts on 14 th and U Streets While there has been a significant amount of research and writing about the “Black Broadway” of U Street during the early part of the 20 th century, less information is available about the renaissance of arts and arts institutions in the neighborhood since the riots of 1968, and why the neighborhood can claim as many arts institutions as it does. This is a first attempt to put together a history of the theatric, visual, and musical arts as these institutions appear at the end of the first decade of the 21 st century, and is not meant to serve as a comprehensive review. A more thorough study of the history of arts in the community needs to be undertaken in order to capture a complete picture. In addition, much of the history is due to the initiative and accomplishments of a few key individuals, and those people each deserve to tell their story in their own words. As the arts district continues to develop, it will be important to return to this document and expand upon it to better appreciate why arts institutions are among us, how they have been able to sustain, and what can be done to encourage their longevity and growth in the decades to come. Theatres and theatrical groups The riots that followed the assassination of Martin Luther King left 14 th and U Streets largely intact, but scarred. Merchants used metal grates and sliding garage-style barriers to close their businesses at the end of the day. -
