Episode 24: An Interview with Historic Preservation Thought Leader Bonnie McDonald
November 25th, 2024 | 54 mins 45 secs
architecture, historic preservation
How do we make Historic Preservation relevant to more than just little old ladies of leisure? Who's stories do our current Historic Preservation systems tell and which groups are routinely overlooked? How is Historic Preservation related to Health, Workers Right's and People's Right to Place?
Bonnie McDonald, the President and CEO of Landmarks Illinois, answers these difficult questions and more. Bonnie is the author of THE RELEVANCY GUIDEBOOK — BUILDING A MORE RELEVANT PRESERVATION MOVEMENT and she shares what she learned when interviewing groups of people who are hardly ever included in the Historic Preservation conversation. She shares the things that still need to change and also tells us about glimmers of hope and success stories about how Historic Preservation has been made relevant to a wider swath of the population.
