Pankaj Mishra in conversation with Mario Arriagada
South to North Conversations
–
Cineteca Rosalío Solano
The Global South has its own commentators, and when they write, the West rarely comes out well. The essayist and novelist Pankaj Mishra (India) is one of the most incisive and lucid of these voices. In Age of Anger he traces the links between contemporary violence and the rise of individualism and capitalism; while in The World After Gaza, he extends his criticism to the global racial order imposed by the West. In conversation with Mario Arriagada.

South to North Conversations: Gaza and the silenced conflicts
–
Museo de la Ciudad (espacio escénico)
Gaza has been under Israeli fire for almost two years. While its inhabitants are killed by military attacks, the West is silent, looking the other way, just as is happening in conflicts in places such as the Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Myanmar, Ethiopia, Syria and the Yemen. At this event, the conversation will be about these silenced conflicts, with the participation of Reed Brody (United States), Pankaj Mishra (India) and Selma Dabbagh (Palestine/United Kingdom). In conversation with Jaled Abdelrahim Aranda.

Bibiana Collado and Fatima Ouassak in conversation with Yael Weiss
South to North Conversations

Museo de la Ciudad (espacio escénico)
«There is only one mother», as the saying goes, but there are many different motherhoods. Such as one of the characters in Yeguas exhaustas by Bibiana Collado (Spain), a mother whose fingers are stiff from work, in a novel about exhausted mothers; or that motherhood that never comes in Chispitas de carne. Fatima Ouassak (France), in La puissance des mères, proposes that mothers can become a new revolutionary subject, able to challenge institutional violence and transform fear into resistance. From a force for peace to a threat to the established order.
