Villa Finale Stands with the National Trust for Historic Preservation
As an historic site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Villa Finale: Museum & Gardens asserts without equivocation: Black Lives Matter.
Our Statement on Monuments to Oppression
We believe it is past time for us, as a nation, to acknowledge that some monuments do not reflect, and are in fact abhorrent to, our values and to our foundational obligation to continue building a more perfect union that embodies equality and justice for all. Our view is that unless these monuments can in fact be used to foster recognition of the reality of our painful past and invite reconciliation for the present and the future, they should be removed from our public spaces.
