Speaking about memory: To remember or not to remember?

For some people is quite difficult to remember, but sometimes you cannot let the memories pass through.

Thirty eight years ago, Chile went through a very bitter period.  On September 11^th of 1973, Chile was attacked by the military forces and a lot of people died including the president, Salvador Allende Gossens, who committed suicide during the bombing to La Moneda Palace. After twenty years of dictatorship Chileans’ lives changed, and there were no longer human rights.

Due to this fact, on May 21^st of 2007, the president Michelle Bachelet announced the creation of a museum that could show, remind and create conscience of those black years and the importance of human rights: The memory museum and human rights.

This museum is quite important for the history of our country and it will help the future generations to be part of the pain of the people who was affected the most, even though this is a national mourning until nowadays.
