Description: "From May 20 – August 13, 2015, items from [The May 23, 2014 Isla Vista Memorial Archive] were displayed in an exhibition, We Remember Them: Acts of Love and Compassion in Isla Vista, marking the one-year anniversary of the tragedy. The central premise of the exhibition was that items left at memorial sites, and other items generated in the wake of the tragedy, were representations of acts of love and compassion. One of the main purposes of the exhibition was to help create a space for healing and reflection. The bombardment of media upon our community made it difficult for students and the larger community to grieve privately. Many complained that the media was more focused on the violence of the perpetrator than on the lives of the victims. This exhibition was an effort to “tell our own stories for ourselves,” and to help students feel empowered in the process."
