About this plan
The Memory of the Ancestors is a session of BibloRed's Non-Fiction Club. It centers on a conversation around Ancestors Day. Through video stories, personal testimonies, and memory maps, the gathering invites you to look at migration stories, inherited knowledge, and traditional trades that pass from one generation to the next in Bogotá families.
The session mixes screenings, art pieces, and shared reading and storytelling. It takes place at the Biblioteca Público Escolar La Marichuela in Usme, a quiet neighborhood library where neighbors and visitors can trade memories.
Entry is free and open to the public. It works well if you care about identity, territory, and historical memory in Bogotá.
