Over 50 masked men gathered in front of the Serb Cultural Centre in Zagreb tonight, chanting the Croatian version of Sieg Heil–Za Dom Spremni. The police checked their IDs and let them go. This follows a similar incident in Split and death threats made to Pupovac. www.index.hr/vijesti/clan...

Centering his minoritised identity is "a radical move in a political culture that expects minoritised candidates to constantly reassure majority audiences." The author makes an interesting comparison to Obama, who attempted to downplay his difference to appease white Americans.👇

I wonder if Vučić is watching this with trepidation.

Zašto su HDZ-ovci poludjeli na benkovački festival: "Mirotvorac" ruši službeni narativ o tzv. Domovinskom ratu kao crno-bijeloj priči skroz nevinih Hrvata i krivih Srba. Film otvara pitanje unutarnje odgovornosti za rat i pokazuje krvave HDZ-ove ruke za ratne zločine u Osijeku. Pogledajte film:

If you haven't watched The Peacemaker [Mirotvorac] yet, make it a priority. I am grateful that more complex narratives of the 1990s war are finally being disseminated in Croatia. vimeo.com/1067050253

Exploring how people find dignity in situations of mass violence, genocide, and callous warfare is both heartbreaking and incredibly important work.
