Project Horn: Truth & Reconstruction, in Conversation with Dr. Alemu

​For many of us in the Horn diaspora, our relationship with home is shaped by histories we did not live through.

​We inherit stories of revolution, conflict, displacement and resistance. But these histories are rarely straightforward. What one community celebrates, another may mourn. What one generation remembers, another may question.

​How do we reckon with a contested past without being bound by it?

​Join Project Horn for a conversation with Dr Amsale Alemu, Assistant Professor of African Studies at Howard University, whose research explores Ethiopian revolutionary movements, anticolonial thought and imperialism.

​We'll explore how history is remembered, contested and passed down, what truth and reconciliation might mean for the Horn and its diaspora, and the role our generation might play in imagining what comes next.

​At Project Horn, we see heritage as something we participate in, not simply preserve. Through language, movement and imagination, we create spaces to reconnect with home on our own terms.
