Week two MEEF . The past in the present

 Here are the two videos we saw in class today.

Chapter three continues discussion of statues, debates about statues, and other uses of public space: road signs and so on.

Chapter four is here. Here, murals are discussed, and also bank notes, both being public spaces which contain public valorisation of political or cultural priorities.
