«A people that has no memory has no future»
Luis Sepulveda
Memory aggregates, it is the glue that keeps generations together, memory is the basis of history and civilization. Memory often changes depending on the shape and contexts. Arrogance and manipulation can attenuate, veil and even redirect memory with the aim to remove individual and collective responsibilities, supported by widespread ignorance. And this is why memory must be preserved and cared every day as a shared resource of mankind.
“After the Second World War, solemn declarations, such as the UN Charter and the Chart of Human Rights, marked an irreversible watershed. Since then, another story has been invoked, demanded and made possible. But it has to bemaintained every day. The memory of what has to be avoided, is the foundation of the new. It is a common good of humanity. Before memory, humanity didn’t exist. Now, with the jealous care of this good, a seed is guarded. Human solidarity can take place and bear fruits. It can enforce principles and give equal dignity,translating into active participation and values what for billions of individuals was – and still is – hope.” Giuseppe Cotturri
