A WORLD INSANE –
Jan. 21, 2025 – Journalist Naomi Klein and trauma expert Dr. Gabor Maté explore the complex intersection of collective trauma, political power, and memory. Drawing from Naomi’s recent analysis of how trauma has been weaponized in current conflicts, and Gabor’s deep understanding of trauma’s psychological impacts, their conversation examines how media narratives and political rhetoric weaponize fear and trauma to gain public support for military and political crimes. The discussion will address the troubling speed at which the Oct 7 Jewish trauma is now converted into a spectacle through virtual reality experiences, museum exhibitions, and immersive memorials, while questioning who gets to control these narratives and to what end. Together, they will explore alternatives for remembering that might lead toward healing rather than perpetuating cycles of violence.
