Moving On

In your opinion, what is the most effective way to overcome trauma?

I think that the most effective way to overcome trauma is go and see therapy a lot and talk about your problems. The more you go the bigger the chance of overcoming quicker. Therapist are trained to help those who need it. Trauma is the situations that are emotionally painful and distressing. Trauma is disturbing to you which means that trauma is painful to you. Types of trauma are physical and emotional.

Enduring Legacies & Obligation

"In resend weeks, President Piñera has said that while the military has been assigned all blame for the dictatorship, there are still civilians who benefited from the regime but who have never taken responsibility. In the end, he said, the country need both justice and forgiveness."

I do believe that those that have benefited from the regime should be held responsible and get punished because they sided with the regime and since they knew what was happening, they should have spoke up and done something. The call for justice connects to the call of forgiveness because together they are like the sign of closure and if there is justice and forgiveness, it can be over. This quote says the Chile's citizens do not have a big Universe of Obligation because many of them don't care about others, but about them and their close ones. I say that because if they had a big Universe of Obligation, they would be held responsible and take blame. All the low class citizens and communism would go on the way outside of the circle, politicians and government would go in the first circle, rich people would be in the second circle, communist should be on the last circle.

Enduring Legacies & Voices

What acts of revolution/rebellion did you see in the Nostalgia of Light? In your opinion, which act of preserving history was the most effective and why?

Acts of revolution/rebellion that we saw in the documentary was all the women were rebelling and searching for bodies/parts of people after the government destroyed the camps.

Also, an architect would pace around and remember all the concentration camps he went the show the proof after the government destroyed them all and he retraced them and drew them to describe how they looked.
