Summary
The Madres buscadoras (lit., ‘mothers who search’) of Latin America keep tireless vigil for the desaparecidos—those who have ‘disappeared’ in the midst of conflict and authoritarian repression. Alejandro Posada Téllez, a DPhil candidate at St Antony’s exploring intersections between the politics of victimhood and peacebuilding, will raise some of these mothers’ voices, their lived experience of daily taking heart to keep seeking truth and justice for their loved ones, and their constant battle between hope, grief, loss, and courage.
This Evensong is followed by dinner in Hall for all who have signed up beforehand; see Chapel mailings for details.
