When exile is internal, that which is intimate is denied. The depersonalization or even dehumanization of a being takes on many aspects that are not necessarily the fact of individuals making History(ies) but also the fact of individuals transmitting History(ies), which although it is always taught in the singular form, is in fact plural.

But while memory can disappear, the impression, the one written in the flesh, is indelible. It is transmitted in spite of time and place.

It is in the folds of what is intimate that the impression is revealed and summons the individual to manifest it.

And when the past becomes real time again despite its forced marriage to silence, it becomes likeness and image must become repentance.
