"Through the initial oral history method workshop last and subsequent webinar sessions revolving around Commodore Boyagoda's A Long Watch, I gained valuable insight into the diverse perspectives, both official and private, of witnesses to the Sri Lankan civil war and its legacy in contemporary, post-conflict society. By facilitating conversation about the sources that challenge neat, communal narratives, Gaya Fernando demonstrated the power of unpacking personal truths to achieve broader reconciliation about what *really* happened during a time in which complex, individualized recollection may have been obfuscated by community-wide trauma and overwriting. I am now compelled to consider archives of memory at varying scales and apply this approach in alternative historical contexts."

"It was so good to have had the webinar sessions. I understood so much more at the workshop and it was a more intimate experience somehow. We had gone so deep with different observations in the group discussions"
