• Turkey: Displaced and Dispossessed

  In July 2015 when a two-year ceasefire broke down, Sur – the historic central district of Diyarbakır – became the scene of the clashes in the city. Tens of thousands of people were forcibly displaced from Sur alone, while across the region the figure is likely to be around half a million. Concerns about how they would survive under round-the-clock, indefinite curfews, worries about their children’s education, limited access to food and healthcare, water and electricity shortages, and the use of heavy weaponry were among the main reasons for the ‘exodus’. But the fighting ended in March 2016, so why have the majority of residents not been able to return home?

• Nathan Ciulla

  I am focused on the development of railroads in British and Japanese colonies respective to each nations industrialization process. Although they seem like purely economic projects from the outside, railroads when used as colonizing tools in India, Kenya, South Africa and Korea provided a system of both material and internalized control.

• Geoffrey Ramirez

  I am a Ph.D. candidate studying popular culture and its effects on gender, sexual, and community identity formation in modern U.S. History. I have a background in Public History and working on digital projects, so I am committed to seeing more history projects embrace a variety of mediums to empower communities. Learning new tools for mapping, data linking, and programming was trying but worthwhile. Taking these skills into the future will prove invaluable in the field I seek to go into. Mapping and translating a physical space into a historical narrative is a crucial part of Public History, so it was wonderful to get experience with a project like this. I hope that Mapping Violence grows far beyond what we here could do within a month and the people of Sur get the recognition and support they need.
