In July 1995, over 7,000 Muslim men were massacred in Srebrenica during a genocide that represented the bloodiest period of the Yugoslav Wars. To commemorate this atrocity ten years later, the Heinrich Böll Foundation initiated a remembrance project that included a 33-photo exhibition featuring five Bosnian and five international photographers. The exhibition toured internationally and was brought to Beirut in partnership with UMAM D&R.With its focus on the past and the need to confront unsettling memories as a way of moving forward, UMAM D&R saw parallels between the mass graves in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the discovery of new mass graves from Lebanon's civil war. In addition to hosting the photo exhibition at the Hangar, UMAM D&R held a roundtable discussion on April 29, 2006, to foster a dialogue between local actors and those with experience in Yugoslavia. Drawing upon their unique backgrounds, the attendees touched on topics of genocide, crimes against humanity, and justice.Moreover, on May 12, 2006, UMAM D&R screened the documentary "Cry from the Grave" by Leslie Woodhead, which looks at the Srebrenica massacre through the viewpoint of a woman who sought to find her missing husband and son.As demonstrated in Srebrenica and Lebanon, the capacity to commit evil is at times beyond imagination. It pushes against some of the very notions of what it is to be human, and thus deserves to be documented, analyzed, and perhaps most importantly, discussed. Only then does the possibility exist of ensuring such atrocities never happen again.This event was made possible thanks to funding from the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung Middle East.
