About this Event

Argentina—home to the largest Jewish community in Latin America—is a nation with multiple histories of violence and loss, includimg the 1976-1983 dictatorship and the 1994 bombing of the Argentine Jewish Mutual Aid Society, which still remains in a state of impunity over thirty years later. In recent years, new challenges have also resituated the significance of Holocaust memory for imagining and reimagining Jewish Argentine futures. Drawing on long-term ethnographic research, Dr. Natasha Zaretsky, author of Acts of Repair: Justice, Truth, and the Politics of Memory in Argentina (Rutgers University Press, 2021), explores new generations of Holocaust memory and their significance for democracy and the public sphere.
