Teaching After Tragedy: How Rwanda Educates for Peace

Presented by Claver Irakoze

In the aftermath of genocide and post genocide society, how do you teach children about the past without passing on hatred or fear, or at least minimizing such realities? This talk will explore Rwanda鈥檚 peace education programs, school curricula, and youth engagement models that help foster critical thinking, empathy, and civic responsibility. Through the lens of my work with Aegis Trust and Solid Minds, I will reflect on how education can prevent cycles of violence, and what the world can learn from Rwanda鈥檚 ongoing efforts to raise a generation that remembers differently, one that chooses peace over revenge. This topic aligns well with university students and educators interested in conflict prevention and restorative approaches to justice and trauma.

Enduring Colonialism and Cultural Injustice

Presented by Dr. Thomas Ward, Professor Emeritus of Spanish.

Inca Garcilaso de la Vega: Literary Genealogies of an Indigenous Intellectual in Nineteenth-Century Peru
After the Spanish defeated Peru's ruling Inka class, the novel was banned, and Peru's first native-born writer Inka Garcilaso de la Vega was also suppressed. Colonial subjects were not allowed to explore who they were, a cultural injustice. After Independence, writers began to perceive that they were no longer Spaniards, and they were now free to read Garcilaso's Inkan chronicles. Dr. Ward will depart from his new book published with University of Nebraska Press to bring these anticolonial writers from Peru into focus.

Autograph Books as Holocaust Objects

During the Holocaust, Jews brought personal objects with them as they were deported to camps and ghettos; among these, Jewish girls brought "autograph books", small albums of blank pages intended for the collection of poems and drawings by friends and acquaintances. This research analyzes several of these books to ask how they functioned inside spaces of persecution and what they meant to their owners.
