Awards reward who has done what they were told... (by who?).
Grammy's are regarded by many as the most prestigious, significant awards in the music industry worldwide.

Cosa significa "comprendere" e "intendere la storia"?
Guido Calogero, nel 1949, ne ha fatto argomento di una lezione alla Columbia che può aiutare a dipanare gli atteggiamenti contrapposti di fronte alla questione #statue.

Per un verso, storia significa comprensione. Ma, se si comprende, allora "tutto comprendere è tutto perdonare", e non resta più la possibilità di giudicare l'accaduto, e di pensare che esso avrebbe potuto svolgersi in modo diverso. La comprensione uccide la libertà.
Per l'altro verso, storia significa giudizio, presa di posizione, approvazione o condanna. Dobbiamo giudicare e prendere partito, perché se non avessimo il diritto di chiamare gli uomini del passato alla resa dei conti, non avremmo il diritto di farlo neppure con gli uomini
A few dozen folks at 57th and Sandy right now. There is a quite large George Washington statue here. #Portlandprotest #statue #blacklivesmatter #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #pdx

1. The debate of statues being ripped down is an important one. When a statue is erected, who or what makes the decision that a certain individual is worth immortalising? How much of society does that individual represent? And who commisions it?

Does the raising of a statue protect it for all time? Or should there be the ability to have an iterative assessment on the statue’s position in society depending on how society is evolving? What should the process be - mob rule isn’t the answer.

This from 2017 is insightful. This idea is crucial👇🏼
´If just removing statues and icons doesn’t force a change in outlook ... and refusing to be honest about their meaning, almost ensures that the country won’t fully confront its past.’

The moment the people of Bristol pulled down the statue of Edward Colston, slave trader

It's now being rolled towards the floating harbour.
Colston opened up the transatlantic slave trade to Bristol merchants & around 20,000 people, incl 8,000 children, died on his ships before they even reached the Americas.
Bristol became Britain's leading slave trading port.

People quickly leapt on the statue as it fell.
Worth noting that the tall office block behind in this picture is 'Colston Tower', & it's on Colston Avenue with the (soon to be renamed) Colston Hall concert venue beyond.
