This website is born of the projects from 15 students studying with Dr. Gretchen Schafft for a class titled "Anthropology of Memory and Remembrance" at American University in Washington, D.C.  This site is dedicated to problematicizing our nations monuments, opening up a space for questioning the official narrative, locating subnarratives, and telling the stories of those who are forgotten in official tellings of history.  We hope you'll join us. 

Below you will find links to each of the projects that we've done.
