Tra israeliani e palestinesi chi ha torto e chi ha ragione? Chi sono i "buoni" e chi i "cattivi"? Gli israeliani, che "da vittime si sono trasformati in carnefici"? O i palestinesi, che "non vogliono altro che distruggere Israele"? E quando comincia il conflitto? A fine Ottocento, con la nascita del sionismo, negli anni Venti del Novecento o nel 1948, quando Israele viene attaccato dai paesi arabi "con l’obiettivo di annientarlo", o quando si verifica la "pulizia etnica dei palestinesi"? E perché la pace non è mai stata raggiunta?

At a time when the cultural conversation was fixated on appeals to legal and bureaucratic systems, narrative activism—storytelling in the service of social change—elevated survivors as authorities. Their testimony fused credibility and accountability into the #MeToo effect: uniting millions of separate accounts into an existential demand for justice and the right to be heard.

"Il conflitto tra israeliani e palestinesi in questi ultimi anni è di nuovo andato avvitandosi su di sé, dopo gli spiragli degli anni Novanta. Delle speranze trascorse rimane ben poco mentre delle antiche diffidenze tutto sembra essere stato riconfermato. Alla radice rimane il mancato riconoscimento reciproco, la tragica finzione per cui, affinché l'uno possa esistere, l'altro debba scomparire una volta per sempre". Una terra, due popoli, ma non ancora due Stati.

On 11 March 2011, a massive earthquake sent a 120-foot-high tsunami smashing into the coast of Northeast Japan. By the time the sea retreated, more than 18,000 people had been crushed, burned to death, or drowned. It was Japan's greatest single loss of life since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. It set off a national crisis and the meltdown of a nuclear power plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways.
