Our reunion will include a panel discussion on the IFS (and French Studies) present and future and opportunities to reminisce about the IFS with Jackie Simon, visit our townhouse, and meet friends old and new over a delicious lunch.
Sarah Gensburger will also speak about the local aftermath of the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris, which she observed first-hand given that she lives between the Bataclan and the Place de la République. Right away, Gensburger documented the collective and intimate repercussions of these attacks in the daily lives of her neighborhood and its residents (Mémoire vive: chronique d’unquartier. Bataclan, 2015-2016).
