Join the Center for Narrative and Conflict Resolution at S-CAR for a roundtable discussion on the role of silence in the aftermath of violence. Since narrative analysis and praxis relies on speaking, this discussion will consider the complicated questions of what role silence plays. Is silence always a problem? Are there ways in which silence contributes to healing process? Or is silence always a sign of marginalization?
