“…Protests and subsequent removal of Confederate Civil War monuments in the United States, statues and references to Cecil Rhodes in South Africa and the United Kingdom, and debate regarding how Argentina should memorialize victims of the Dirty War disappearances of 1974-1983 exemplify history-long tensions between historical narratives at the time of the creation of public displays of history and subsequent changing political and societal norms.

This study examines how preservice social studies teachers (n=84) conceptualize debates regarding Public Displays of History (PDH) such as monuments and building names.Participants describe PDH as important venues for learning history but view them as incomplete, often biased, sources of information. When determining whether removal or alteration is appropriate, participants stress current interpretation of the subject's deeds, original overt and tacit intent of the creators of the PDH, broad societal values and whether removal changes understanding of the subject of the PDH. Participants describe some PDH as ineligible for alteration or removal because of their importance to society. Participants view classrooms as appropriate places for students to engage in debate regarding PDH. Implications for classroom practice and future research are discussed.
