Our town is trying to move its confederate monument, but our state passed a law in 2020 attempting to make that moot, and so I'm working up a poster idea. #SurroundItInALandscapeOfThorns #ThisIsNotAPlaceOfHonor

- A black and white poster with an obelisk monument to confederate soldiers starkly in the center. Text: This is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours. A government study proposed these words of warning for long-term nuclear waste storage. If Georgia's OCGA 50-3-1(b)7 prohibits relocating this confederate monument without reducing its prominence and visibility, we should similarly treat it as dangerous leftover toxic waste. (remote)
