About the Author

Amy Sodaro is a distinguished scholar and author whose work explores the intersections of memory, violence, and public commemoration in contemporary society. With a PhD in sociology, she has dedicated her career to examining how societies grapple with histories of atrocity through institutional frameworks. Her research draws on extensive fieldwork in memorial sites across Europe and the United States, illuminating the political dimensions of remembrance and the role of museums in shaping collective narratives. Sodaro's insightful analyses challenge readers to reconsider the ethics of exhibiting trauma, advocating for more inclusive and reflective approaches to historical memory.
