History, Memory, Commemoration: Sulawesi
Plus the short film IKN
In December 1946, Captain Raymond Westerling and his Special Forces launched a violent campaign in South Sulawesi to suppress the Indonesian independence movement. Thousands were killed in what became one of the most brutal episodes of the colonial war. How does the memory of this violence persist today? And how do centuries-old local cultures endure despite such powerful external forces?
