“Recordar… para mi es lo mejor del mundo, para ellos es lo peor.” memorias de niños y niñas víctimas del desplazamiento en Colombia y sujetos con derecho a la memoria.

Abstract

In Colombia, for several decades there has been an armed conflict that has caused thousands of victims of forced displacement throughout the country, hundreds of families disintegrated and endless pages of horror have been written with the ink of violence. The Colombian boys and girls, have not been alien to this scourge, because they and they, together with their families have had to leave their homes to protect their lives. With the signing of the peace treaty with the FARC-EP, they began a series of efforts to recover that Colombian history that is hidden in the stories of those who have lived in their own flesh displacement, to recover memory. But when this reconstruction is located in the boys and girls, tends to take the paths of the fanciful and unreal, downplaying to their words or even ignoring them in order to protect them from the very burden of memory. And starting precisely from this premise is that this thesis appears, which seeks to give voice those boys and girls designated by the Colombian state as victims of displacement, in the understanding that they are subjects with the right to memory. For this objective, a series of conversations were held with sixteen boys and girls, during the year 2019, in which using different memory detonation strategies, such as the use of Google Street View, the aim was to investigate those memories who were lying in their territories and from which they were dispossessed. During these conversations it was found that the construction of the childhood memory of the scroll did not just subscribe to the event as such, but had a construct nascent in the precedent, going through deterritorialization and reterritorialization, now in the city of Bogota. In this sense, the insults of war inhabited the streets, parks and to the houses of their places of origin. However, these boys and girls, in addition to that vision that seems bleak, show other constructions of memory such as the beauty of his life in those territories, a look of illusion, which could go unnoticed if it were not for these boys and girls. Thus, through these uprisings and their nested voices, these boys and girls have presented not only his memories but those of his family, have shown that more than stories fanciful, are deep and complex memories, which make them subjects worthy of being heard and with the right to memory.
