Town Destroyer | History's Impact: Trauma vs. Catalyst
Season 11
Episode 8
About the Episode
Whether it be a name or a monument, what harm can it bring? Jessica Young explains how the repeated experience of seeing something like "dead Indian" in Victor Anautoff's "Life in Washington" murals can traumatize while Pete Galindo shares how, even though he grew up with violence around him, a work of art depicting violence would instead validate and empower him.
