Sun, April 30, 12:00 to 1:45pm, TBA

Session Submission Type: Panel

Abstract

This panel approaches the question of memory and memorialization in post-dictatorship Chile from four distinctive experiences (queer feminist performance, armed struggle, exile memory, and new technologies) focusing on practices of imagination, mapping, and the creation of new narratives that can be mobilizing in the aftermath of violence and trauma. We discuss issues of memory in relation to agency, the body, and political subjectivities and projects
