History on the Line: Judy Chesser on the Work of the Committee of 100 to Place a Check on Trump’s Remaking of Washington

Judy Chesser, chair of the Committee of 100 on the Federal City, joins us for a conversation about the fight to protect Washington’s historic landmarks and defend the National Historic Preservation Act. From Trump’s proposed triumphal arch to the demolition of the White House’s East Wing to make way for a ballroom—and controversial plans for the Kennedy Center—we explore what preservationists see as threats to the nation’s architectural and cultural heritage, why public oversight matters, and who gets to decide the future of America’s shared spaces.
