In this episode of Justice Atlas together with archeologist Sera Yelözer, artist Hera Büyüktaşçıyan and anthropologist Umut Yıldırım we will be discussing how certain injustices of the past can be read through materials and artifacts, without any need for narration. Starting with the discussion about what is hidden in the written, official archives and what is made invisible in the city by way of the visible construct, the speakers approach various matter as witness of past events and transmitter of memory. 
 
We set out from trees, stones and beads and seek to answer some questions:
 
 
Why are pre-historic and historic separated by writing? How does the sovereign impose his own reading onto matter? How does the layout of Beyazıt Square manifest this? What kind of past do the stones in “ghost villages” accomodate? How can the genocide history, destroyed by the official archive, be accessed by way of the trees? What possibilities does politicizing of imagination provide? What does it mean to be "in love with the ruins"? With what injustices is the truth revealed in excavations?
