On 5 December 2024 (U-Residence, 6 p.m.) Vrije Universiteit Brussel welcomes the award-winning German Jewish author Esther Dischereit. The author will read from her new book Ein Haufen Dollarscheine (2024) and engage in a discussion about uncomfortable truths that linger in official sites of documentation, in family archives and, last but not least, in the memory of individuals that can be at odds with dominant narratives about the past.

This event is part of the Ties that Bind Us Series and realised in cooperation with the recently launched Chair Traces of the Resistance.
