The chapter traces the evolution of historical memory from patriotic exceptionalism to polarized identity claims. It examines debates over Confederate statues, slavery reparations, and school curricula. Media and populist rhetoric are shown to deepen historical fracture lines. This case illustrates how pluralistic democracies face internal pressures from contested memory.
