Parque de la Memoria

[struggle4progress]

The Parque de la Memoria (English: Remembrance Park) is a public space situated in front of the Río de la Plata estuary in the northern end of the Belgrano section of Buenos Aires. It is a memorial to the victims of the 1976–1983 military regime ... The park covers about 14 hectares (35 acres). In October 2006 a ramped path was installed as well as commemorative sculptures, dedicated to the victims of the government sponsored violence. The ramped path is meant to form a giant "wound" in the lawn of the park leading toward the river, where the name of those killed or vanished are located ...

7. Trump Threatens to Imprison Critics

By Elie Honig, a former federal and state prosecutor

In a pair of official proclamations — rendered no less unhinged by the use of official fonts and White House letterhead — Trump identifies two targets who worked in the federal government during his first tenure and dared to speak out publicly against him. First: Chris Krebs, who led the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency from 2018 to 2020 and made headlines when he publicly contradicted Trump’s false claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen. For this act of heretical truth-telling, Trump labels Krebs “a significant bad-faith actor” — whatever the hell that means — who poses grave “risks” to the American public.

And then there’s Miles Taylor, a former Department of Homeland Security official who publicly criticized the president in an anonymous book and various media appearances. Taylor, like Krebs, purportedly poses “risks” to the United States, is a “bad-faith actor” (though apparently not a significant one like Krebs), and “stoked dissension” with his public commentary ...

8. Shoes on the Danube Promenade

On the banks of the Danube River in Budapest, not far from the Hungarian Parliament building, sit sixty pairs of old-fashioned shoes, the type people wore in the 1940s. There are women's shoes, there are men's shoes and there are children's shoes. They sit at the edge of the water, scattered and abandoned, as though their owners had just stepped out of them and left them there.

If you look more closely, you see that the shoes are rusted, made of iron and set into the concrete of the embankment. They are a memorial and a monument to the Hungarian Jews who, in the winter of 1944-1945, were shot on the banks of the Danube River by the members of the Arrow Cross Party ...

11. National Memorial for Peace and Justice

Racial terror lynchings were violent and public acts of torture that traumatized Black people throughout the country. Tolerated and often aided by law enforcement and elected officials and designed to re-establish racial hierarchy after the Civil War, lynching was terrorism.

Racial terror lynching left thousands dead, significantly marginalized Black people politically, financially, and socially, and inflicted deep traumatic wounds on survivors, witnesses, and the entire African American community that fester to this day.

14. Sanctuary of the Fallen of the community El Triunfo

The monument “Santuario de los Caídos” (Sanctuary of the Fallen of the community El Triunfo) has an altar and a plaque with the names of the 300 people killed and victims of enforced disappearance from the Communities of Population in Resistance (CPR) during the armed conflict in Guatemala (1960-1996). Every February 25, the date on which the report of the Commission for Historical Clarification was submitted in 1999, the National Day of Dignity of the Victims of the non-international armed conflict is commemorated. On this date, the members of the community honor the victims and pray in the sanctuary where flowers are laid and candles are lit.
