What Do You Do When You Cannot Undo Your Family's Past. Part 2


Listen Later

Part 1 was the reckoning. Part 2 is what you do with it.

Natalie Berthe found out her family were active participants in the administration of the Belgian Congo. In Part 2 she talks about reconciling love for her family with the truth of what they did, what her responsibility looks like going forward, and why she is not looking away. Including her heritage fragment, one step for anyone whose heritage includes harm, and why this is not courage — it is just really uncomfortable, which is not the same thing as hard.
