History, Heritage, and Eugenics

History, Heritage, and Eugenics
Professor Joe Cain discusses how the distinction between history and heritage can help community discussions about de-naming, statue removals, and transitioning from a dysfunctional system of commemoration to one that works for everyone. This film was created specifically for a project at University of Puget Sound, responding to the question: how might UCL’s experience considering its legacies of eugenics assist University of Puget Sound in their own deliberations about de-naming. This film was created in 2020.
