Deconstructing Genocide: Remembering Srebrenica and Reflecting on Britain Today

​The genocide in Srebrenica did not happen overnight. It was preceded by years of propaganda, the normalisation of hatred, dehumanisation and the gradual erosion of people's humanity in the eyes of others.

​This event will look at the history of Srebrenica, what made the genocide possible, and what we can learn from it today.

​Bringing these conversations into the context of Britain, we want to think critically about the rise of Islamophobia, the political climate, and the ways in which hostility towards certain communities is increasingly normalised.

​What does it mean to remember a genocide? And more importantly, what responsibility do we have to recognise and challenge the conditions that make such atrocities possible?

​Join us for an evening of discussion, reflection and critical engagement.
