Prof. Steve Gorelick on Huffpost Live

Prof. Gorelick was on Huff Post’s new live streaming network on January 4th at 6:30 PM EST. The topic/discussion is an outgrowth of his interest in how media and culture – as well as the survivors of catastrophic violence – act in the aftermath of incidents to create art and culture and rituals that express their grief and their sadly futile need to know why.

Specifically, it will deal with how such incidents often lead to understandable controversies among artists, video makers, public officials, community members, survivors and others about how to remember and what objects in which spaces to create memorials.
