"Recent instances of memory activism in Israel-Palestine allow Yifat Gutman to reconceptualize both memory politics and peace activism, and thus to offer memory studies important new paradigms. Her ethnography of activist groups highlights hopeful alternatives to official memorials and commemorations of troubled histories. As this groundbreaking study shows, memory activists can take responsibility for the past even as they imagine and work for a more just future. Memory Activism represents engaged scholarship at its best."--Marianne Hirsch, author of The Generation of Postmemory: Writing and Visual Culture after the Holocaust
