This episode Lexi and Elena review placemaking by taking the listener through their sites of public memory, the hallway of photos in the NAERCC and the Sherman Sage memorial in “Hidden Figures” alley. Lexi details photos you can see in the hallway and how those photos create meaning for the site. Elena then takes us through the accomplishments of Sherman Sage. They then discuss their trip to the archives and the struggles to find information therein. Both Lexi and Elena detail secondary academic research as their methodology for research. The episode is wrapped up with a conversation on decolonization and what that means for their sites of memory.
