Institute for Research of Genocide Canada in cooperation with the Congress of North American Bosniaks and other Bosniak organizations and communities in Canada invites all friends of the truth about the aggression against the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina and genocide against its citizens and friends of justice for the victims of the worst crime after World War II in Europe, Genocide in Srebrenica, to magnify the event “Što Te Nema?” - “Why Are You Not Here?” -  Saturday, July 12, 2014, 12:00am - 8:00pm at Dundas Square, Toronto.

Srebrenica genocide is recognized by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia {ICTY} and subsequently by the International Court of Justice {ICJ}.

About “Što Te Nema?” (“Why Are You Not Here?” in Bosnian)

 

“Što Te Nema?” (“Why Are You Not Here?” in Bosnian) is a public monument created as a response to Europe’s worst atrocity since World War II: the systematic killing of more than 8, 000 Muslim men and boys in the UN-protected safe area of Srebrenica and the surrounding areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina in July of 1995.

 

“Što Te Nema?” translates into English as both, “Why are you not here?” and “Where have you gone?”. The title is borrowed from an old Bosnian song about waiting and longing for a loved one.

 

“Što Te Nema?” is collectively assembled and disassembled by people on city plazas and squares on the anniversary of Srebrenica genocide each year. The public participates by placing small, porcelain coffee cups on the ground and filling them with Bosnian coffee prepared on the spot throughout the day. The thousands of small porcelain coffee cups called fildžani are continuously collected and donated by Bosnian families all over the world. Their number increases each year, roughly corresponding to the growing number of bodies found, identified and buried to date. As a nomadic monument without a permanent physical place, “Što Te Nema?” consistently depends on the public’s active initiative and cooperation in order to exist. The involvement and participation that happen through this shared ritual allow for constant re-creation, re-interpretation and reproduction of personal and collective memory of the Srebrenica genocide.

 

“Što Te Nema?” has been set up on every July 11th for the past eight years with the help of local volunteers, groups and organizations in the following locations:

 

- Washington Square Park, New York, NY

- Taksim Sqaure, Istanbul, Turkey

- Church Street, Burlington, VT, USA

- Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm, Sweden

- Het Plein, The Hague, Netherlands

- Trg žrtava genocida Srebrenice, Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina

- The United Nations Headquarters, New York, NY, USA

- BašÄaršija Square, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Sve o “Što Te Nema?”

 

“Što Te Nema?” javni spomenik je stvoren kao odgovor na jedan od najstrašnijih zločina počinjenih u Evropi nakon Drugog svjetskog rata: planirano je i po planu ubijeno više od 8.000 muškaraca i djece muslimana u zaštićenoj zoni UN-a u Srebrenici i okolnim mjestima u Bosni i Hercegovini u mjesecu julu 1995 godine.

 

“Što Te Nema?” se svake godine postavlja na dan godišnjice genocida u Srebrenici kao živi spomenik sačinjen od hiljade fildžana koje prikupljaju i doniraju bosanskohercegovačke porodice iz cijelog svijeta. Broj fildžana se stalno povećava, simbolično prateći broj pronaÄ‘enih, identifikovanih i ukopanih žrtava koji je svake godine sve veći i veći. “Što Te Nema?” se zajednički postavlja i sklanja na gradskim ulicama i trgovima jednom godišnje. Prolaznici i posjetioci učestvuju u kreiranju ovog spomenika postavljajući fildžane na zemlju i sipajući u njih bosansku kafu tradicionalno pripremljenu na licu mjesta. Postavljanje i postojanje živog spomenika “Što Te Nema?” zavisi od aktivnog učešÄ‡a i incijative javnosti. Zajednički rad prisutnih, njihov doprinos i sudjelovanje omogućavaju ponovno stvaranje, interpretaciju i obilježavanje ličnog i kolektivnog sjećanja na genocid u Srebrenici.

 

Do sada je “Što Te Nema?” spomenik bio postavljen svakog 11. jula u sljedećim gradovima:

 

- Washington Sq. Park, Njujork, SAD

- Taksim, Istanbul, Turska

- Church Street, Burlington, SAD

- Norrmalmstorg, Štokholm, Švedska

- Het Plein, Hag, Holandija

- Trg žrtava genocida Srebrenice, Tuzla, Bosna i Hercegovina
