Chapter Two Initial Thoughts
My initial thoughts on the chapter are that design through gentrification greatly reduces historical importance of significant moments.
At the University of Virginia, when archeologists discovered graves and the remains of Catherine “Kitty” Foster’s site, though the historical significance of the relationship between African Americans on the University of Virginia was evident, little more was done than to place a plaque on the ground. Then, years after, a decision was made to commemorate the site. But the process of how and why so long after is curious to me.
It is part of history that African American workers worked as slaves and as somewhat free people on university campuses. But it is clear that there is little acknowledgement of the work that was done, perhaps in an effort to smooth over the history of the past, a history of racial injustice. I think that I begin to see why things progressed the way that they did in the case of the Kitty Foster site.
Kitty Foster and those around her lived on the area, as time progressed white landowners bought the land around significantly decreasing the area of the site. The site itself began to decompose due to neglect and inability to maintain due to racial inequality of the time.
Finally, the area was gentrified and the site was simply razed and built on top of. It was only years later that the site was unearthed as new plans were made for the university.
To me, this only strengthens the thoughts brought on by the previous chapter. History is erased through gentrification, which, as is usually the case, is done by a more powerful race to a lesser race.
Then of course when evidence is found years later and society feels as though it needs to redeem its past actions, plans are made to, in an offhand way, commemorate the site.
Would commemoration be necessary if the site, the area, hadn’t been gentrified? Of course, that is a “what if” question and the fact remains that it did happen.
Now a structure and system has been designed to commemorate the space and at least this time, a structure has been designed for interaction as opposed to something as simple as a plaque that people can walk top of without a second thought.
The structure itself does do a decent job of creating a moment within which people interact with a space that has historical impact, not only of remembering the people but giving them a physical location on the site.
