On November 13, 2015, Paris was rocked by a series of coordinated terrorist attacks, which killed 131 people and injured 416. To mark the 10th anniversary of these attacks, Museum Director Clifford Chanin is joined by award-winning French filmmaker Jules Naudet, Director-General of the forthcoming Musee-Memorial du Terrorisme in Paris Elisabeth Pelsez, and Distinguished Professor of French at Texas A&M University Richard Golsan to consider how November 13 is remembered today. Together, they explore how testimony, memorial museums, and scholarship shape collective memory of the attacks, offering perspective on how communities worldwide confront trauma and preserve the lessons of tragedy for future generations.
