The importance in naming of large-scale political violence in the construction of national historical narratives in Sierra Leone and Rwanda

The Bernard and Fern Badzin Graduate Fellowship in Holocaust and Genocide Studies is awarded every two years, and pays a stipend of $22,500, and $1,000 toward the mandatory graduate student fees.

Bridges of Memory will bring together recent and long-established ethnic, national, and religious communities in the Twin Cities (Armenian, Jewish, Hmong, Khmer, and Somali among others) facilitating constructive conversations and allowing them to draw upon their respective capacities to address a history of mass violence, communal memory, and resilience.
