Monuments are slow culture. Outdoors the changing weather takes its toll on their gravity. Media is fast culture. Values can change quickly. Fast culture can war on slow culture. That resulted in taking down some monuments, new ones appearing, and a discussion of what we want for monuments. https://www.portland.gov/arts/monuments/whats-happening-citys-monuments
This 2 day ticketed and free symposium organized by Converge 45 and hosted by PCC Cascade is part of that process.
