Assignment:

1. Can you suggest ways in which the post-Civil War events in Richmond (culminating in the erection in 1890 of the statue dedicated to Robert E. Lee), appear to be connected to the events relating to the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville VA in August of 2017 (and subsequent unrest), as well as to the events in the US Capital on January 6, 2021 (the "insurrection")?

2. How did you think the addition of the Arthur Ashe statue change the purposes and significance of the other statues on Monument Avenue (and perhaps of the Arthur Ashe statue itself)?

3. What effect did the pandemic and the events that fueled the Black Lives Matter movement have upon the fate of Richmond's Robert E. Lee statue (and why)?

4. In what ways and to what extent can the symbolism of monuments marginalize (even overpower) other issues that arguably should be/are of paramount public concern?

5. Should the graffiti covered pedestal upon which the Robert E. Lee statue rested be allowed to remain as a new monument?
