COVID Monument
What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?
meme
Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.
This meme seemed relevant as it ties into the argument being pushed that removing confederate statues erase history, but monuments are not history. Rather a reflection of that time and space according to who paid for the monument.
Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
