Page "Conciliation" Paragraph 7

Historical Conciliation is not an excavation of objective facts.

The point of facilitating historical questions is not to discover all the facts in regard to who was right or wrong.

Rather, the objective is to discover the complexity, ambiguity, and emotions surrounding both dominant and non-dominant cultural and individual narratives of history.

It is also not a rewriting of history.

The goal is not to create a combined narrative that everyone agrees upon.

Instead, the aim is to create room for critical thinking and more inclusive understanding of the past and conceptions of “ the other .”
