This activity is part of the project «The Graves of Francoism: Archaeology, Anthropology and Memory».
We invite you to listen to real stories about real lives:
In a Human Library there are no books but people who speak in the first person. In a Human Library there is no fiction but a strong dose of reality that will hit you very hard. In a Human Library readers listen with their hearts to everything that human books need to tell.
On this occasion, the Human Library features people who are well aware that "the more a grave is emptied, the more the memory fills up". Relatives and professionals linked to the processes of reparation of democratic memory will become human books to share their experiences in this process with readers who want to listen to them. "Todo aquello que cuenta el silencio" wants to give voice to the people who were silenced in the past in order to connect them with the present through the generosity of a Human Library.
- If you want to be a reader of this Human Library, that is, if you want to attend to listen to these life stories, you must register at: biblioteca.etnologia@dival.es.
- There are 40 places available for each session.
- The human libraries are suitable for people over 12 years of age because the books are not fantasy, but real and we know that reality often surpasses fiction. However, it is a highly recommended activity for young audiences.
