Exploring the complexities of societal memory regarding systemic violence, this work by Mihaela Mihai delves into how histories are constructed and who is often left out. It highlights the political implications of selective remembering and critiques dominant narratives that overlook collective complicity and diverse forms of resistance. Mihai proposes "mnemonic care" as a means to challenge these narratives through the work of critical artists. The book analyzes artistic responses to historical injustices in contexts like Vichy France and apartheid South Africa, emphasizing the significance of dissent in shaping memory and responsibility.
