A TOUR OF A SITE OF GENOCIDE: MOTHERS, BONES AND BORDERS

 

Abstract:

 

In this personal narrative, I aim to describe internal struggles I endure for one day in Srebrenica on my visit to a mass exhumation site. The narrative discusses and raises a series of questions related to human motivations, actions, and disturbing traumatic experiences....This essay intends to talk about the things and feelings often left unspoken, and, although quite specific in its focus on Srebrenica, contains universal themes that cross countries and continents. ....The narratives of women from Bosnia and Herzegovina are making an important contribution to history and warn future generations to learn lessons from the past atrocities.....
