I read with interest this article about the monument in the New Yorker. Well written.
For more context and a good read, I recommend this essay: Dell Upton, “Why Do Contemporary Monuments Talk So much?” in Commemoration in America: Essays on Monuments, Memorialization and Memory, edited by David Gobel and Daves Rossell (University of Virginia Press, 2013), pp. 11-35.
