23rd Annual J.B. McLachlan Lecture, featuring Dr. Jennifer Evans
23 Annual J.B. McLachlan Lecture, featuring Dr. Jennifer Evans, Professor in the Department of History at Carleton University, presents:
“Learning from the Germans about the Legacy of Genocide”
Germany committed unparalleled atrocities during the Second World War, and has taken enormous steps in recent decades to ensure subsequent generations honour the memory of victims of racial injustice. But this was not always so, and for some Germans today, there is much more that might be done. This talk explores the local and national level forms of commemoration that make up German memory culture today, while highlighting recent struggles over colonial violence in Canada and the continued place of structural racism today.
