Mama said: Najja Moon’s new Miami Beach monument honours mothers in their own words
In the ongoing cultural debate over what and who should be commemorated in public monuments, some new voices will join the conversation in Miami Beach come March. There, a sound shower of maternal affirmations, reminders and loving (or scolding) critiques, spoken by a chorus of women in English, Spanish and Creole, will pour out from a configuration of speakers mounted on a plinth and encased in radiant multi-toned glass in Collins Park, in front of the Bass Museum.
