Closing Keynote Address of Unspeakable Truths: Political Violence, Gender, and Reconciliation in the Balkans and Spain (Basque Country)
Unspeakable Truths wishes to highlight the reparative turn in which Basque and Balkan societies are immersed. How do communities that have turned a blind eye to processes of dehumanization, that have defaced the "you-in-me," come back to moral life? This symposium will bring together a sample of these new conversations as our speakers (direct protagonists) highlight the avenues redrawn through the delicacy of memory, responsibility towards the dead, reparation of survivors, truth commissions, processes of restorative justice, and of course, the internal movement that art provokes in the heart and mind.
This book brings together the letters that eight college-age students, three from Dartmouth College (Lucas Joshi, Rachel Kent, and Naren Radhakrishan) and five from the University of Deusto (Pablo Bellido, Paula del Barrio, Zuriñe Iglesias, Unai Murua, and Naiara Nájera) exchanged over email and videoconferencing from March to December 2020. This initiative was made possible thanks to the collaboration between two faculty members and colleagues, Annabel Martín (Dartmouth College) and María Pilar Rodríguez (University of Deusto) when they introduced their students to each other in the context of a seminar being taught at Dartmouth College on the postETA context. The letters focus on the broad theme of political violence and the challenges that both Basque and US society face regarding coexistence and the idea of community.
Join us for a conversation on health and gender perspective in the Indigenous Bawinocachi community.
