Conferences - Time for discovery

April 4 at 6 p.m. - 1944/1945 FROM SAVAGE PURAGE TO THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM
by the Museum of the Resistance and the Combatant
Meet at Espace Perbosc, 2 bd E. Herriot

June 1944, France is on the path to Liberation. Popular jubilation, justified after four years of occupation, gave way to popular vindictiveness against the collaborators. To prevent too many clandestine settling of scores and to provide a
legal framework for the Purge, the provisional government created the courts of justice by the order of August 26, 1944. They will be responsible for studying the files of all people who have committed acts of collaboration with the enemy.
Come discover a part of our history that is often overlooked or deliberately forgotten.

June 6 at 6 p.m. - 1914/1945 WOMEN WAR REPORTERS, ANOTHER HISTORY
by the Museum of the Resistance and the Combatant
Meet at Espace Perbosc, 2 bd E. Herriot

Since the 1850s, war reporters have taken their photographic equipment into the heart of the fighting, places that everyone seeks to flee. They track war, seek to give voice to those who do not have it. They bring their harvest of images back to their sponsors.
If big names like Albert Londres or Robert Capa are familiar to you, what about the names of Nellie Bly, Andrée Viollis, Alice Schalek, Gerda Taro or Lee Miller? Come and discover these women engaged in the heart of conflicts to testify, at the risk of their lives.
