Who’s Heritage Journal
Part 1
American Tobacco Trail Who put them there and why?
This trail was originally a railroad track used by the American Tobacco Company and when it was abandoned it was repurposed by the county to provide a healthy way for people to get in the outdoors. What values do they represent.
This trail is representative of the people in the region and their desire to have a place to see the beauty of the region and get some exercise at the same time. Are they positive in their representation or do they represent some people at the expense of others?
There may have been a time where the tobacco here represented those who were able to afford it and the people running it making so much money but at this time it is an open park that people use 24/7 to exercise, see the outdoors, and meet members of the community.
Do they represent the whole community or part of the community?
This trail is representative of the whole community. To see how many people use it each day and the way they prioritize their health it is clear it matters to everyone. I, for example, ran here six days a week for 4 years while I was on my high school’s cross country and track teams. Along with my school there were other schools and community members at this trail every day. Do the values represent the whole community even if the monument is about a specific group?
This is a monument that anyone can use and connect with, if they are in the area on a trip or if they just moved here from across the world it is a great way to see the landscape and
connect with the country. Sarah P. Duke Gardens
Who put them there and why?
This 55-acre garden was proposed by a Dr. at the Duke medical school and paid for by the widow of Duke University founder Sarah P. Dule. The Dr. who proposed this idea walked by a waste disposal site every day on his way to campus and wanted it to be so much more. Over the years it has grown into a place of refuge for students and community members alike. What values do they represent.
This garden is a reminder to all that we need time to ponder on the beauty of life and remove ourselves from the business that overwhelms us. This is why it is very appropriately placed on the grounds of a prestigious and competitive university in the region. Are they positive in their representation or do they represent some people at the expense of others?
There is nobody this garden leaves out or disparages as there are flowers and plants from around the world growing here. Do they represent the whole community or part of the community?
This garden started as a representation of the local community and specifically as a place of refuge for the medical students who work so hard and see so much suffering. At this point in time, it is simply seen as a place of beauty and community engagement. Do the values represent the whole community even if the monument is about a specific group?
These values of beauty, nature, and peace are for all and ensure nobody is left out as these are things everyone needs.
