Exhibition Confronts Confederacy Mythology
The exhibition "Monuments" at MOCA Geffen and The Brick explores the line between history and propaganda by displaying toppled monuments alongside contemporary works about race, history, and memory.
The conversation around the exhibition is rooted in a tragic event that occurred in 2015, when Dylann Roof killed nine worshippers at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
Y’all are raping our women, and y’all are taking over the country, and you have to go.
This incident highlights the ongoing issue of racism in the U.S. The exhibition aims to spark a dialogue about the mythology of the Confederacy and its impact on contemporary society.
