In this episode of The Oeuvre, Farah, Amanda, and Angelika explore the gentrification of East London. A cultural hub once renowned for its accessibility and thriving community of underground creatives, East London is now synonymous with exorbitant prices for thrifted clothing, unique food spots, and rent. How have progressive ideals, whether expressed through an aversion to fast fashion and unsustainable business practices, or through support for self-expression and multiculturalism, been co-opted into a machine of aestheticised overconsumption?

In this episode of What If? The Future’s Legal Podcast, we ask: what if justice focused less on punishment, and more on memory?

We explore whether preserving testimonies, storytelling, and collective memory can itself function as a form of justice in post-conflict societies.

We are joined by Francisco, a Public Information Coordinator at the International Criminal Court, who shares insights from his work communicating justice to communities affected by conflict. The episode considers whether international justice should be measured by convictions alone, or by how societies remember what happened, and why that memory matters.
