Last week, the U.S. Department of the Interior announced 24 new National Historic Landmarks. The newly designated sites, which include landmarks ranging from a 12th-century village site in Iowa to the site of the Kent State Massacre, “depict different threads of the American story that have been told through activism, architecture, music and religious observance,” according to U.S. Secretary of the the Interior Sally Jewell. Their designation as National Historic Landmarks means that the Department of the Interior will provide communities with “technical assistance, recognition and funding” to help preserve the sites.
