COLLECTIVE INTERNATIONAL BOOK
The need for reparation becomes urgent at a time when the issue has become a media issue and those who oppose it, having understood that such an issue can no longer be ignored, have decided to muddy the waters.
Many organizations have opened their own workcamps, but for them, reparation rhymes only with reconciliation, and excludes any financial compensation in line with the position of the French state, which only means a reparation of memory that it does not assume elsewhere. the question of the two crimes would therefore be a simple moral question. These negationists and ideologues in the service of the state will increasingly occupy the media field and the fight initiated by MIR and many others must now be raised, intensified and federated at the international level.
This is why, in partnership with DIASPORAS NOIRES EDITIONS, it seemed important to MIR to coordinate and produce this international collective work, reflecting as many voices as possible, exploring all the known paths on the theme of reparation, and above all a pedagogical work dealing with all the forms it takes: cultural, psychological, spiritual, economic, political reparation…
