EVERY MONUMENT WILL FALL (HB)

Tracing the origins of contemporary conflicts over art, heritage, memory, and colonialism, this book joins the dots between the building of statues, the founding of academic disciplines like archaeology and anthropology, and the warehousing of stolen art and human skulls in museums. Offering an urgent reappraisal of how we think about culture, it’s part biography, part excavation, and reveals the enduring legacies of militarism, slavery, racism and white supremacy hardwired into the heart of our cultural institutions.
