US/ICOMOS prides itself on connecting with outstanding leaders in the field of historic preservation and racial justice. Collaboration is a central value to the Monuments Toolkit, and we believe that the more we learn, the better we can serve the American people and our listeners around the world! A prime example of this comes this month, as we spoke with Bonnie McDonald from Landmarks Illinois.
As President and CEO of Landmarks Illinois, Bonnie advances the vision, mission and programs of the organization. Bonnie was also instrumental to the Chicago Monuments Project, one of the best city-wide campaigns focused on monuments of oppression.
We spoke on the groundbreaking values of Landmark Illinois’, incomplete views of history, and how other cities can tackle this issue with success.
