It’s no surprise that Susy (as she’s known in the office) works in education as she’s been surrounded by it her whole life—her father worked as an educator, her eldest brother is a university professor, and her husband has a degree in the field. Susy started her journey by studying in a bilingual secretarial program in Barranquilla, Colombia. She was such a good student that they hired her and, over the next 15 years, Susy’s interest in education flourished while teaching English to children. “Seeing [the children] improve their knowledge and abilities in a second language was very rewarding. I enjoyed being creative in my classes and motivating them to participate, practice English, care for one another and work as a group. [I learned that] a fun and safe environment helps children to feel happy and comfortable, and happy children learn faster.” I am fortunate to meet all kinds of people in my job, from different parts of the world with different backgrounds. Right: Susy oustide the Continuing Studies Building, University of Victoria. Next page: A keepsake with words of thanks from Susy's time teaching children in Colombia; and Susy in costume with her dance partner and husband, 2008. 26

I have also taken some Continuing Studies courses, like French Language Conversation and Sing Level 1 (just to see if my voice starts sounding any better!).” It’s easy to see where Susy gets her drive and motivation. When asked if she has any role models, she quickly answers, “I have several, most of them women! My mother, Maria Herrera, is one of them.” At the young age of 16, Susy’s mother already had three children and was living in a part of the world where it was difficult for women to progress in life. “Even so,” she adds, “[my mother] did everything she could to finish high school and university to become an accountant, and to give my siblings and I a better life with better opportunities.” 27

Reconstructing Holocaust histories through visual narratives By Therese Eley, Marketing Services “I magine saying to a Holocaust survivor, ‘We’d like to do a comic about your life,’” chuckles Charlotte Schallié, professor of Germanic Studies and chair of UVic’s Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies.

It seems, at the surface, like an absurd request: to take survivors’ Eventually she came across Maus by American cartoonist Art trauma and marry it to an art form that is generally associated Spiegelman, which depicts a son interviewing his father about with light-hearted comedy and even triviality. But, in truth, that his experiences as a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor. She is an over-simplification, and indeed a misrepresentation, of the incorporated it into the curriculum of a Holocaust Studies series of graphic novels that Charlotte and her team created. course that she was teaching, and found that the students were really engaged and excited about exploring serious subject Charlotte first became interested in the graphic novel genre matter through this artistic form. This got her thinking about through her teenaged son, a reluctant reader who was really creating a project that pairs artists with child survivors to interested in graphic novels. “So, I just kept buying them for co-create three graphic narratives together. him. Then I got very interested in them and found that there is a whole host of graphic novels that deal with socially relevant “It is such a fascinating art form because it allows a issues, social justice issues,” she reflects. multilayeredness of the story. It really allows us to show non- verbal elements, such as emptiness or trauma or just nothing because the survivor cannot remember, or the artist simply cannot draw such a horrific scene. As in films, sometimes what they [the survivors] don’t say is as powerful as what they do say. And the reader or the viewer complements it, so they become part of the meaning-making process as well,”she says. Like many historians, Charlotte has often used more traditional methods to interview survivors. In these projects, she realized that asking people a series of scripted questions just extracted a narrative that she was already expecting or looking for. Engaging artists in the process changed the research by actually gathering the story the survivor needed or wanted to tell. Artwork: Barbara Yelin This was not an easy 34 project to complete. It required a lot of courage and trust on behalf of both the survivors and the artists. As Charlotte describes it, “We can do a lot of harm with these interviews. With these Holocaust survivors, it is extremely difficult for them to give their testimony, even when they are experienced testimony givers, because it is so intimate and personal. But one important thing we found was artists ask very different questions than what a more traditional interviewer would ask, because if

The Holocaust didn’t happen overnight, there were early warning signs. There was a slow process that Although the project brought about three started from targeting human beings, to segregating them, to graphic novels, it is clear that, for Charlotte, dehumanizing them, and this can happen any time and it will a key take-away of the project is what was happen again. We cannot afford to ever forget.” learned through the process of collecting these stories in a trauma-informed and ethical way. “We cannot just say, ‘Here is the finished project! Look at these beautiful graphic novels; stories of heroism, amazing work!’ No. They are beautiful work, but we need to talk about the process, the costs involved in remembering stories like this. I think with this project, one important aspect is we want to share our methodological process so others can benefit from it and perhaps draw on it in their own work with trauma survivors.” This was not an easy project to complete. It required a lot of courage and trust on behalf of both the survivors and the artists. It required really understanding the impact of trauma, and a commitment to an ethics of care and compassion. There were difficult obstacles that threatened to side- track everything. So why do it? “With mass atrocity, the more I know, the less I understand,” Charlotte reflects. “Each testimony is of critical relevance, but it doesn’t necessarily facilitate engagement. How do we really bring about change? How do we get a person who reads this to say, ‘Oh my god, I need to be more attuned and more mindful to what is going on in my world! I need to do something. I cannot pretend it isn’t happening.’ It’s so awful, so unimaginable, that it makes us shut down. It creates apathy because it is so difficult. I think art is an incredible way to humanize these testimonies and engage people because it triggers emotions in people and has them experience the testimony in a different way.” Dr. Charlotte Schallié participated in the fall 2021 Deans’ Lecture Series and presented on this research project.
