Variants of remembrance in my village (4)
Non-remembrance. Denial. The message is "don't look at them, look at me!" Several graves at our local parish cemetery have recently been intentionally vandalised or desacralised, such as this one. This also is an individual, not an organised, contribution to remembrance, though a fully negative one. Non-remembrance, or the killing of the memory, is unfortunately part of the human repertoire. Now it is in our village.
