Bearing Witness: The Impact of Memorialization
In this podcast series produced by Andrew W. Mellon Fellow Dr. Stephanie Arel and award winning documentary filmmaker Jessica Daugherty, we will speak with museum and memorial workers including curators, collectors, writers, and directors about the impacts their work at memorial sites has on communities and themselves to investigate the importance of the roles they play in society. The podcast is a continuation of Dr. Arel's research, and is a companion podcast to her book Bearing Witness: The Wounds of Mass Trauma at Memorial Museums.
