Memory

Reflecting on the past to understand the present means seeking the coordinates that allow us to understand new situations with the awareness of the dangers or opportunities that certain cultural, social and individual mechanisms trigger.

The experience of the genocides of the twentieth century, the phenomenon of totalitarianisms, the balances of the cold war, provide us with very precise clues on the drifts to avoid. On the contrary, the example of the Righteous shows the way to avoid the denial of the truth, the rejection of diversity, the closure to the other.

Over the years Gariwo has collected reflections, opinions, interventions and interviews to try to outline a path of memory - of all the genocides and mass atrocities - in tune with the dynamics of a world in constant evolution.
